Strategic five-year planning increments guide phased construction, renovations, and demolitions
In 2012, Texas A&M University-Commerce engaged a multidisciplinary team led by GFF to prepare a master plan that would serve as a framework for decision-making about the campus for the next twenty years. Two priorities drove this plan: projected growth in enrollment of 1,000 students per year and creating an excellent quality of life on campus, supported by academic facilities and amenities, in a pedestrian environment with a well-defined sense of place. Presented in five-year planning increments, the master plan illustrates the construction of new facilities, the renovation of existing resources, and the removal of outdated buildings. By 2032, A&M Commerce will have increased the total building area on campus by more than one million GSF to serve an enrollment of approximately 25,000.
