Where High Impact Learning Meets Real-World Innovation
In today’s highly competitive knowledge economy, institutions that understand the importance of cultivating partnerships between higher education, industry, and community partners are at the leading edge of problem solving and innovation.
Knowledge Park at YCP will provide a place for our campus community where high-impact learning will be activated, while also accelerating our region’s economic development. Offering an estimated $64 million in economic value to the York area, Knowledge Park will provide hundreds of employment opportunities and is projected to generate over $27 million of income for the local economy.
As York College evolves, we know our community will continue to grow alongside us. Whether we're providing a high-knowledge business with a place to call home or helping a student discover a passion for their future career, the Knowledge Park will create transformational opportunities.
Progress doesn't come naturally — it's built. And with this new revitalization project, we're building something that will develop a lasting legacy for our students, our partners, and all of York County.
Helping Businesses Grow
The Knowledge Park will provide space-for-rent in a state-of-the-art facility that honors and reflects local history. The original building served York County for over 200 years as the Schmidt & Ault Paper Co. Now, renovations will provide businesses, organizations, and other industry partners with the opportunity to find a home among our Spartan family and participate in innovative partnerships with our campus community.

Empowering Students
