The 2010 Campus Master Plan was updated to re-envision a comprehensive campus plan to support the implementation of the University’s strategic plan, Shaping What's Next. The Master Plan determined needs and guided development of the physical elements of campus including facilities, space, transportation, parking, housing, utilities, infrastructure, and the outdoor environment for the next decade, through 2035. The Campus Master Plan resulted in a comprehensive development plan that integrates the University’s goals for academic excellence, research, diversity, equity, and inclusion, student experience, community programs and engagement, talent and workforce cultivation and sustainability.
