CNAS Master Planning Study

CNAS Faculty and Staff: You are invited to learn more about the CNAS Master Planning Study and provide feedback. The consultants have done a thorough study on our current spaces and identified the types of new spaces we need. They have conceptually drawn options for new spaces (additions and new buildings). We need your thoughts and feedback at this time so we will know how to proceed. The consultants will provide a final, prioritized plan in March of 2020. There will be opportunities in 2020 to help prioritize the list of projects.
