Developing Campus Infrastructure Through Partnerships

As higher education institutions face challenges in finding ways to upgrade existing facilities and deliver major new expansions, many are looking at P3s and alternative delivery models as an opportunity to facilitate growth.

Learn how schools are overcoming resource constraints to upgrade facilities and deliver critical on and off campus developments. This year's program focuses on how advancements in procurement, design, financing, and O&M can be applied to your campus and next project.

Join more than 1,000 higher education and industry leaders for two days on the latest modes of project delivery.

Program Preview

We examine campus infrastructure challenges faced by schools nationwide; and how new approaches to procurement, risk, planning, and asset management are helping campus planners deliver critical projects.

The program explores alternative delivery methods, how to plan successful P3 initiatives, best practices in selecting partners, and steps to take to ensure your projects are delivered on time and budget.

This year we feature active and upcoming P3s at colleges and universities; as well at community colleges, research facilities, specialty, and technical schools.
