Higher Education

Colleges and universities are challenged by an ever-changing landscape of issues: declining enrollments, decreasing public support or private fundraising, cultural shifts, student debt and affordability, inclusion, student engagement, success and retention, aging infrastructure and space planning, and accommodating new technologies.

Helping our institutional clients negotiate the issues and create environments that will serve their communities of learners and host communities into the future is a responsibility we take seriously.

Experience

Higher education has been at the core of Newman Architecture’s practice since its founding in 1964. We are consulted as both national experts and local partners, understanding the challenges and working with educators to make decisions about diversity, cost, retention and success, in addition to the nuts and bolts of design and construction.

Forum

Today’s learning spaces must accommodate evolving pedagogies and flexible learning styles. Integrating academic and social environments enriches and enlivens campus communities and learning, providing daily opportunities for intellectual, creative, social, and spiritual development. Addressing these goals with a signature architectural expression allows us to integrate high design and function with the requirements of each campus.
