Urban campuses are under stress, but in this session we'll share planning and design approaches to help urban institutions thrive as well as navigate strategic priorities, partnerships, programming changes, facilities, and real estate strategies. We'll highlight approaches and lessons learned from two New York City institutions during the pandemic, including creatively retrofitting their campus facilities amidst a crisis period of declining revenue and enrollments. Join us to learn new physical, academic, financial, and operational strategies that can reshape your campus while ensuring its long-term success.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Assess short-term and long-term actions that can make urban campuses more resilient.
  2. Identify strategies to help your institution confront a funding crisis and declining enrollment.
  3. Explain how to reinvent existing and new facilities in anticipation of advancements in pedagogy and technology.
  4. Compare how different institutions deal with new models of learning, partnerships, and real estate strategies with a focus on changes to programs and curricula.
