The comprehensive Campus Master Plan process, led by Sasaki, the industry leader in higher education design, architecture and planning, in conjunction with TCU鈥檚 facilities leadership, began in 2022. Approved in concept by TCU鈥檚 Board of Trustees, this plan will serve as a blueprint for the next decade, ensuring that our campus evolves in ways that support our mission, foster innovation and create an inspiring environment for learning, research and community engagement.
Multiple constituent groups, and more than 1,000 people, including trustees, students, faculty and staff were engaged as we performed an enrollment growth study, all-campus surveys, work sessions and in-depth conversations.
