PROJECT ROLLOUT With the 20-year time horizon of the master plan to 2039, the roll out has been divided into five categories, each focusing on a programmatic theme or timeframe. While the program blend is modified within each of these focus areas depending upon the intent, there remains a strategic sequencing for the rollout based on achieving the stated goals of the Physical Master Plan. The following program descriptions outline the considerations for each of the individual program typologies:
Academic Space: The demand for additional academic space is driven by FTES growth, defined at a constant 1 percent annual increase. The Immediate focus is assumed to accommodate the current shortfall of entitled academic space on campus. The progressive addition of academic space over time is calculated for all Colleges and the Physical Master Plan does not define which academic function should be located in any one particular location. This strategy is important since it provides flexibility to the University in determining how, when and where additional pedagogical spaces are added.
Nonacademic Facilities: The timing and addition of nonacademic space is not regulated by FTES entitlements, allowing for greater flexibility in timing. The University will have the ability to build these facilities as funding becomes available, supporting the campus life vision of the plan, rather than being driven by FTES. The implementation plan should, however, consider adding the
requisite amounts of nonacademic space consistently throughout the plan duration in line with academic space growth, to ensure that a balanced blend of program functions are provided for the campus community.

IMPLEMENTATION OF FOCUS AREAS
Figure 98. Proposed Implementation Focus Areas
Implementing the Physical Master Plan should be governed by making incremental improvements to the campus, aligning with the goals of the current Campus Strategic Plan, The Academic Plan and Physical Master Plan. The five key focus areas are: Focus A : Immediate Projects Focus B : 5-Year Capital Plan Focus C : Residency Focus D : Community Focus E : Pedagogy
Combination of state and non state funding is required to achieve the full visions of this master plan.
44% Non State Funding
56% State Funding
