Master Planning at Emory
Last month, Emory launched its Master Planning initiative that will allow all members of the Emory community – faculty, students and staff at all University and Emory Healthcare sites -- to provide input into a shared vision for the facilities and digital investment we will make in the future. The Master Plan will provide Emory with a roadmap for these investments as they support the goals and strategic initiatives in Emory’s recently announced strategic framework, “One Emory: Engaged for Impact.” It will also identify and elevate opportunities for philanthropy, and create a pathway to a future fundraising campaign.
In coordination with Sasaki, the master planning firm engaged by Emory, we have launched at master planning website and the MyCampus planning tool survey, an interactive survey that will allow faculty, students and staff to provide input into their current living, learning and work patterns at Emory.
How can you participate? Provide feedback on the site and take the survey (ten iPads and twenty-five $25 Visa gift cards will be given to those who complete the survey). |
