Design and Construction Standards
Facilities Planning and Construction provides facilities master planning, space management and utilization data, capital program planning, real estate management, architectural and engineering services, construction contract management, and large-scale building alterations, renovations, code compliance, and construction.
Design and Construction Standards have been adopted by the campus to provide guidance in the construction, renovation, and maintenance of campus facilities. They are intended to identify standards and preferences of the University of Nebraska at Kearney Facilities Management and Planning Department and shall be applied to all remodels and new construction.
University Village
The University of Nebraska at Kearney has completed the planning stage for development of the 104-acre site now known as University Village – a new campus that will combine public and private resources in a mix of business, retail, office, services, housing, parks and recreation. The development is planned for an area south of the new Health Science Education Building on the south side of Highway 30. More information can be found at www.unk.edu/uvillage.
With initial planning complete and preliminary designs crafted, UNK will begin working to develop and build infrastructure including roads and utilities, begin planning the first university projects for the campus, and seek developers to lead and invest in private, commercial construction projects at the new campus.
