About The Plan
The Campus Master Plan emerges from a process of listening, exploration, and discussion that generates ideas and possibilities to meet our community's goals for this campus and how it serves our educational mission.
What Is A Campus Master Plan?
An opportunity for K-State to leverage what’s working, re-examine issues and prioritize goals. This project will guide the physical development of the campuses in Manhattan, Salina and Olathe, providing short and long-term objectives and serving as an extension of the Next-Gen K-State Strategic Plan.
Have We Ever Done This Before?
K-State has a history of physical planning that is integrated with its strategic, academic, programmatic, space management and enrollment plans. These plans are updated approximately every 10 years to stay current with academic, research and student life needs. This new Campus Master Plan will clearly articulate the concepts and constructs that make the university distinctive and meaningful to the campus community and beyond.
Why Is This Important To Me?
The Educational Landscape is Changing
The last campus master plan was completed a decade ago. To stay current with academic, research and student life needs, the university's goals articulate the concepts that make the University distinctive and meaningful to the community and beyond.
As Part of the University’s Community, Your Voice Matters.
We want to hear your perspective on the spaces that you feel will make the campus even more vibrant, connected, usable and beautiful. Your thoughts, concerns, and feedback throughout the planning process will help guide this process and shape the physical campus for years to come. We will look at topics such as buildings, streets, parking, walkways, open spaces, learning environments and many other physical campus elements during this process. We will work together to create a campus for the next generation of students, faculty and staff.
