The Department of Planning & Design serves as the steward to plan and develop high quality, cost effective, long term and sustainable facilities and landscapes that embrace the vision and core values of Case Western Reserve University.
The 2025 Campus Master Plan will serve as a guide for the future development of the CWRU campus for the next fifteen years. Implementation of the Master Plan will continue to enhance the University's academic mission as well as partnerships with neighboring institutions and the surrounding community.
The Planning & Design staff works with architects, engineers, contractors, University departments, and individual faculty and staff while managing the development of new projects and renovations of existing space on campus.
