Transforming Streets into Bustling Places for Campus Life

Many institutions are rethinking the presence of vehicles on campus and facing a need for more sustainable and multi-purpose circulation spaces.
Abstract: Many institutions are rethinking the presence of vehicles on campus and facing a need for more sustainable and multi-purpose circulation spaces. Once a traditional city street running through the University of Oregon campus, this session will examine Thirteenth Avenue's re-imagining as a multi-modal open space that supports student life. This is a transformative concept grounded in rigorous analysis and integrated planning. We'll encourage you to think critically about existing campus corridors, renew circulation systems and residual open spaces to support student life, and inform design approaches to your unique campus development challenges.

Next-Gen Academics Driving ‘Now’ Spaces in Higher Education

Education is rapidly evolving to meet changing workplaces, fueling a race among institutions to offer wider academic tracks tailored to emerging industries. How universities compete with new, responsive programs may need to evolve, too.
Abstract: Education is rapidly evolving to meet changing workplaces, fueling a race among institutions to offer wider academic tracks tailored to emerging industries. How universities compete with new, responsive programs may need to evolve, too. From eSports and cybersecurity, to clean energy and vehicle electrification, emerging fields of study have potential for immense program growth and unique cross-disciplinary opportunities—yet, they struggle to find a home in traditional academia. Through case studies of three institutions’ newest program offerings, this session will examine what it takes to bring education tracks like eSports and clean energy to campus via highly-specialized learning environments.
