Engaging Students for Success

Overview

Higher education is laser-focused on understanding what students need to be successful and engaged. The ability to create a culture that positively impacts academic performance and engagement is critical to the goals of all institutions regardless of academic program, mission, student demographics, and culture. Join us for insights on defining student success, implementing different types of programs and strategies, and aligning campus planning and facility design with institutional values to help students be successful and feel a sense of engagement, community, and belonging.

Learning Outcomes

• Discuss tools that gather data on what your physical campus conveys to your students and how to communicate insights from that data to your leadership.
• Use insights from student-focused professionals to build perspective on planning for belonging, community, and authenticity.
• Outline proven design strategies for a campus that balances achievement with wellness.
• Evaluate the fiscal and operational realities of planning projects that create meaningful connections.
