Classroom Facilities

How to Find Your Classroom

To locate the building your classroom is located in, you can use this interactive map of the campus.

Room Layout and Equipment

Log in to the Classroom A/V website with your McGill username and password and select a building/room to view a layout of Audio-Visual (AV) equipment, a list of each piece of equipment present, operating instructions, and images of the room (when available).

Need adapters, cables, or other equipment? Same-day and long-term loans are available.

Computer Laboratories

You can request the use of an SCS Computer Lab by emailing your requirements to instructors.conted [at] mcgill.ca. Instructor Services will do its best to accommodate your needs based on availability.

Classroom Change Requests

The Class Scheduling Office (CSO) is responsible for booking rooms for the whole university for both credit and non-credit courses. Instructor Services acts as SCS’s liaison with CSO.

In line with the CSO's guidelines, room changes will only be considered when the assigned space does not meet pedagogical requirements, such as:

  • Capacity issues (e.g., under capacity)
  • Technology limitations (the need for an HDMI adapter is not considered a valid technical issue)
  • Classroom configuration (e.g., fixed rows that may hinder group work or active learning strategies)
  • Accessibility concerns

If the assigned classroom does not meet the pedagogical requirements of the course, the instructor must email the domain’s Academic Program Coordinator (APC) with a detailed explanation. If the APC supports the request, they will contact Instructor Services to explore alternative room options. Please keep in mind that a room change does not guarantee a more suitable space. Finding an alternative teaching room – especially at the last minute during the fall and winter terms – can be very challenging and may not be possible.
