FASTER Feasibility Study and Programming

The master planning and programming study for the College of Agriculture at Kansas State University (KSU) was a comprehensive study that evaluated over 1.1M SF of existing facilities. BNIM worked with 11 departmental groups to create a phased concept design with the overall goal to elevate the College of Agriculture from a top 20 program into the top 5 national ranking. The study identified an additional need for 125,000 SF of research space; 59,000 SF of teaching space; 79,000 SF of office space; and 122,000 SF of greenhouse space. The proposed expansion will be addressed by two new buildings and three new greenhouses; and renovating existing space.
