"Higher education design provides spaces that connect the many different members of the campus community, reinforce their shared mission to advance higher learning and extend the learning environment beyond the classroom."

STUDENT FOCUSED DESIGN

Designing buildings and spaces that nurture social development and inspire learning.

We are committed to creating exceptional learning experiences. Since our inception, May Architecture has worked continuously with college and university clients to create buildings and environments for learning, living, gathering, dining and wellness that encourage positive student development and prepare students for a successful future. Our team of higher education design experts are well-versed in the increasingly complex challenges of university academics, culture, funding and operations.


LEADERSHIP IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Our experts are well-versed in the complexities of Higher Education Design.

We recognize the multi-faceted challenges our higher education clients face – from multiple stakeholder involvement, to varied pedagological needs, to student and staff recruitment and retention, to funding challenges. We work with top-tier colleges and universities to design buildings and spaces that address these challenges while inspiring learning and preparing students to enter the next stage of their lives fully prepared.

“It is inspiring to see our team lead the creative process to develop a shared solution – with input from many stakeholders, including students, and across consulting disciplines.”
