Other Key Highlights •
• • • • • The campus is home to four of the university’s nine colleges and is foundational to the undergraduate experience. Growth is projected in all four colleges, but there is limited physical capacity for that growth due to the historic and archeological significance of the campus.

College of Science and Mathematics
College of Education
To accommodate the projected growth, the College of Science and Mathematics should physically move to the Health Sciences Campus. This move allows the College to bridge the health sciences and medical education at the Health Sciences Campus with the liberal arts education and professional degrees at Summerville. This also enables the other three colleges at Summerville to grow.

College of Allied Health Sciences
The Health Sciences Campus anticipates growth in all colleges. The Campus will evolve into a fully integrated health sciences education, research and patient care environment for undergraduates, graduates and professional students. The Campus has physical growth capacity but lacks clear organization. A realignment of facilities and programs is necessary to reinforce a sense of place and organization.
