Solutions for Higher Education

When student and faculty expectations, technology advances, and progressive teaching modalities drive change in higher education, keeping up in this fast-paced environment is an ongoing dilemma.

Haworth has a framework, methodology, knowledge, and the products to help you solve space planning challenges on campus.

Campuses that Work

Welcoming
Students and faculty need a safe, welcoming atmosphere to promote interaction and collaboration.
Flexible and Adaptable
Spaces that serve multiple uses, change quickly, and accommodate more differing needs are essential for today's campus.
Functional
Buildings must be workhorses that accommodate the purpose for which they are built, while creating a collegiate atmosphere.
Accommodating
Spaces that support multiple teaching and learning styles allow for experimentation and flexibility for both staff and students.

Livable 24/7

It's not just a learning environment–your campus functions 24/7. Lifestyle spaces for work, study, social activities, nutrition, play, rest, and relaxation must complement a safe, secure, easy-to-navigate campus.

Affordable

Higher education is more than a sticker a sticker price on tuition. It's a return on investment that includes instructors, student services, and administrative support, among other expenses. When you leverage cost effective resources to design spaces on campus, you add value to your offering.

On Brand
The design, colors, and materials you choose create an inviting environment that also conveys brand to attract prospective students and parents, and engage alumni.

"Online learning is transforming spaces that universities are building, noting a rise in student demand for ‘hub buildings’, which comprise informal learning spaces, social spaces, IT facilities, dining areas, and counseling services."
