Peterborough's Trent University has its sights set on developing a new satellite program at George Brown's new waterfront campus.

Still awaiting the go-ahead from the province, the university hopes to offer 2,500 spaces for students of its arts and science degree as well as another 2,500 for a joint university-college diploma at the yet-to-be-built lakeside facility.

The new state-of-the-art campus will be home to George Brown College's new Centre for Health Sciences, its first student residence and a recreational complex set to open in 2011.

The new two-building facility will be located on a two-acre site on the south side of Queens Quay Boulevard between Lower Jarvis and Lower Sherbourne streets.
