Make sure your institution is represented at this pivotal planning conference (27th annual) to benchmark your facility plans for modernizing, expanding, and raising the competitiveness of your STEM teaching and academic research programs.
Here you’ll meet with and hear expert testimony from facility planning teams at peer institutions who are having success with new cost- and capital-saving facility initiatives to:
- Raise the visibility of STEM programs
- Recruit new students and faculty
- Incorporate new teaching pedagogies
- Integrate intra- and inter-discipline research programs with new facility models
- Increase flexibility to accommodate changes in programs
- Make collaboration, connectivity, and interaction happen
- Raise the efficiency of resource use – space, capital, budgets, and technologies
Make this a planning event for your key stakeholders (capital project people, facility planners, facility engineers, STEM program chairs, deans, faculty members, financial officers, and operations managers) to get everyone on the same planning page with respect to the details, numbers, and results on:
- Financially sound renovations, upgrades, and modernizations
- Proven facility features for collaboration and connectivity
- Innovative teaching lab/classroom configurations for new pedagogies
- New building systems and equipment that reduce energy and operations cost
- Features for increased student-faculty interaction and undergraduate research
- Highly adaptable and flexible space for changing programs
- Multi-use/multi -purpose classroom/lecture/lab configurations
- New high-utilization space plans
- Shared-use strategies for equipment, space, and financial resources
- More efficient and effective core lab facilities
- Flexible lab furniture and casework
- High impact features for student and faculty recruitment
