Architectural & Construction Services

Architectural & Construction Services

Our mission is to ensure that all capital construction projects are professionally managed with integrity and consistency, and are brought to an effective conclusion. We manage all capital projects (those with a budget of $500,000 or more) across campus. 

Core Responsibilities

Architectural and Construction Services (ACS) oversees the planning and design for capital projects with budgets exceeding $500,000 through the design phases, inclusive of bidding and award of construction contracts.

ACS ensures that proposed architectural and engineering projects are planned and designed to seamlessly blend with and enhance the natural and built environments of the campus while meeting the programmatic needs of the users.
