Lazaridis Hall is home to Laurier's Lazaridis School of Business and Economics together with the Department of Mathematics.
From the main entrance to Lazaridis Hall, visitors turning to the right will immediately find two large rooms, each approximately 9 metres by 9 metres with 4.5-metre ceilings. Both have floor-to-ceiling glass walls facing the atrium, designed to encourage drop-in observation and activity. The first space – hub for entrepreneurship – is home to the Schlegel Centre for Entrepreneurship and Social Innovation, which coordinates all aspects of Laurier's entrepreneurship activity, including LaunchPad. The hub has full active-learning classroom capability. Participants in this space can gather at six tables, designed as collaborative media centres with the ability to project laptop content on to wall screens.
Next to the Schlegel Centre is the dedicated student club space. These clubs provide outstanding opportunities for students to test their skills against other students on campus, across the country and around the world.
A glassed-in hotelling office can be used by students and visitors. A small math tutorial space next to the student club space provides a focused study area that still allows others to watch the teaching taking place.
