As higher education confronts unprecedented change, campus planners are taking on the critical role of synthesizing an institution’s diverse spatial, fiscal and physical development needs into a unified action plan. SmithGroup’s integrated campus planning provides a comprehensive consideration of academic, financial, campus life and facility issues. The approach helps facilitate a broad-based consensus for institutional goals and priorities, along with a data-rich understanding of how to realize them in a shifting educational landscape.
