Welcome to the UAA’s Campus Facilities Master Plan 2009. The UAA Master Plan is a living document; it is our guide for how, where and why we expand the UAA campus. It’s about how people move about campus and how people see the campus. It has to be flexible enough to support changes in our strategic and academic plans yet disciplined enough to respect the sense of place UAA is and not allow expedient decisions that are inconsistent with the plan.

Cover, UAA Campus Facilities Update 2009

UAA’s 10-year horizon is bright with opportunity and growth. As we grow to meet the demands of the State’s workforce we must do so sustainably, in harmony with our master plan and in cooperation with our U-MED and community partners.

Our 2009 Master Plan is the product of past planning’s guiding principles and objectives, current strategic and academic plans and many conversations and discussions carried on across the university and the Board of Regents and the community since the 2004 Plan was inked.

This edition of the Campus Facilities Master Plan replaces that which was approved by the Board of Regents in 2004. This new edition was necessitated by a number of physical and organizational changes which are listed in the Introduction. The contents have been updated throughout, and reordered to conform more closely with the twelve elements of the Board of Regents criteria for master plan adoption, which are also listed in the Introduction.
