Master Planning
A Framework for the Future
Campus planning is done with a long-term view that ultimately guides the day-to-day business decisions and investments of the University. It mirrors our academic vision and guides the creation of a physical learning environment with lasting value.
Any change to the physical appearance of campus buildings and grounds is monitored by the Campus Architect and facilities planning staff. This includes everything from curb cuts to whole buildings.
Campus Master Plans
The Campus Master Plan is the vision for the campus physical environment. Besides being essential for proper University physical development, a facilities master plan is required by the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE). The Campus Master Plan establishes overall goals, objectives, and design principles that serve as a framework for future physical development. It also provides long range planning for architecture, land use, space use, landscape, transportation, parking, and utilities.
