Higher Education: Athletics
From cutting-edge indoor practice facilities to iconic campus stadiums, we design high performance spaces across the country that support the athletic department’s goals and encourage holistic student success and health and wellbeing.
Decades of experience have tailored our approach to meet growing recruitment and revenue generation demands for the campuses and cities that sports teams call home. RATIO has planned or designed over $800 million in higher education athletics facilities to date.
