A Unique University Initiative for Adolescent Behavioral Healthcare

Abstract: The Brandt Behavioral Health Treatment Center and Retreat of Rutgers University is the first of its kind. As a unique response to adolescent behavioral health challenges, Rutgers is developing a new clinical and research program along with a two-building on-campus residential and outpatient facility. Mental health challenges are rising among young people, and these issues require inventive and accessible solutions. This session will demonstrate how sustainable, biophilic building design can support an innovative, integrated approach to the mental health treatment of adolescents and young adults.

Colocating Dissimilar Academic Programs

A School of Nursing and a School of Engineering Align for Mutually Beneficial Outcomes

By: Ed Stand, BArch, LEED BD+C, AIA, Richard S. Leddy, MBA, P.E., and Laura White, BArch, AIA, LEED AP, WELL AP

Respecting mission-oriented mutual goals, two schools at Hofstra University shaped an improbable pedagogical partnership through cross-functional collaboration and data-informed decision-making.

From Volume 53 Number 2 | January–March 2025

Abstract: Administrators at colleges and universities across the country face mounting concerns over enrollment rates, curricular rigor, and climbing real estate costs. These challenges are particularly daunting for liberal arts institutions, many of which have pivoted or are pivoting to STEM programs out of necessity. Cross-disciplinary colocation strategies can enhance hands-on learning opportunities while optimizing spatial and financial resources. This article explores the planning approach to forming mutually successful partnerships between dissimilar academic programs through mission-oriented cross-functional collaboration, including examples of tools and processes for data-informed decision-making.

Master Planning for Tripartite Missions

Academic Medical Centers Must Focus on Health Care, Education, and Research

By: Sumegha Shah, MArch, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, Kelsey Mack, BS, and Ben Bassin, MD, EDAC

The authors share best practices for comprehensive integrated planning processes to meet evolving demands, build consensus and a shared vision, and successfully prepare for implementation.

From Volume 52 Number 4 | July–September 2024

Abstract: Academic medical centers sit at the intersection of health care, education, and research in service of the community. New models of care delivery, work, and learning require these systems to adapt and innovate to remain relevant while addressing regional health care demands and advancing strategic priorities. We discuss planning strategies to empower institutions to align capital with their mission to achieve longstanding success. This article shares best practices for comprehensive integrated planning processes across tripartite missions to meet growing and evolving demands, build consensus and a shared vision, and successfully prepare for implementation.

Bridging Research Silos

Improve Collaboration with a Planning Framework

By: Donald Merritt, PhD, and Craig Park, BSArch, Assoc. AIA

The authors emphasize practical applications and the integration of diverse expertise as a transformative approach to educational facility design.

From Volume 52 Number 4 | July–September 2024

Abstract: This article explores the application of interdisciplinary translational design (ITD) as a method to overcome disciplinary silos, enhance collaboration and integration across various fields, and promote a culture of respect and cooperation. ITD facilitates the creation of adaptable, technology-rich environments supportive of future-oriented research. Emphasizing practical applications and the integration of diverse expertise, ITD is presented as a transformative approach to educational facility design, fostering more effective interdisciplinary interactions and optimized research outcomes.

A Multi-institutional Collaboration to Meet Healthcare Industry Workforce Needs

By: Joel Frater, Vice President of Student Affairs

Community colleges are seeing a decline in enrollment while the healthcare sector is experiencing a chronic workforce shortage.
Abstract: Community colleges are seeing a decline in enrollment while the healthcare sector is experiencing a chronic workforce shortage. These phenomena require us to examine current and future industry needs to inform the development of a sustainable model. This session will highlight a multi-institutional collaboration, informed by Labor Market Intelligence (LMI), that aligns with strategic priorities and seeks to mitigate a critical regional workforce shortage while positioning for long-term sustainability. Come learn strategies for developing consortium agreements among diverse institutions and how to use LMI to inform sustainable collaborative models to address workforce needs and boost enrollment.

Complexity and Contradiction: Integrating Decarbonization Planning and Actions

By: Jennifer Garman, Architect | Jeffrey Mandyck, Principal | Marc Partridge, University Architect, Capital Project Management | Shane Stennes, Chief Sustainability Officer

Campus decarbonization requires flexible and adaptable approaches at all scales. Determining the appropriate mix of action plans helps campuses prepare for an increasing number of existing building performance and carbon reduction policies.
Abstract: Campus decarbonization requires flexible and adaptable approaches at all scales. Determining the appropriate mix of action plans helps campuses prepare for an increasing number of existing building performance and carbon reduction policies. The University of Minnesota's (U of M) multi-campus system, one of the largest in the U.S., is planning and taking actions to become net zero. This unconventional approach addresses decarbonization across regional climates, campus-systems, and building scales. In this session, we'll provide transferrable decarbonization planning processes, best practices, and lessons learned from actions across geographical regions, diverse campus-wide energy systems, and existing facilities net zero strategies.
