Planning Principles
From the campus engagement and analysis, three distinct planning principles emerged. These principles serve as overarching goals and guideposts for campus development and align with the university’s commitment to student success, faculty excellence, and infrastructure growth.
- Increase clarity, consistency, and connectivity across campus
- Promote community through programming and campus organization
- Build upon the campus legacy while meeting modern needs
Concept Framework
The planning principles translate into an overall conceptual framework for the campus that illustrate the key goals for the plan:
- Improve campus clarity and safety through improved accessibility, mobility, and wayfinding.
- Create a more connected campus through high quality outdoor spaces and placemaking.
- Reinforce research zone synergy around the MizzouForward themes.
- Incorporate hubs to foster collaboration and promote wellness and community building.
- Make strategic, mission-driven, and resilient investments in facilities and infrastructure which address stormwater, utilities, and safety.
