Buffalo: City of opportunity
The Buffalo Niagara region—home to 1.5 million residents—is the state’s second-largest major metropolitan area, exceeded only by New York City. Buffalo is home to leaders in health care, sport, technology, nonprofit, and corporate professions, which provide many hands-on training and employment opportunities for Canisius students.

Our prime location provides the ideal backdrop for a graduate school experience. We are within walking distance of Delaware Park, the city’s most popular greenspace; a short bike ride or drive to the Elmwood Village, a bustling cultural district; and only a 10-minute train ride to historic Allentown or Buffalo’s stunning redeveloped downtown waterfront.
The campus is within driving distance of exciting international destinations such as Niagara Falls and Toronto, Canada. Canisius is also with-in a day’s drive or an hour-long flight to most major cities in the Northeast.
