Bowling Green State University
Master Plan and Implementation Plan, Bowling Green, OH
Bowling Green State University (BGSU) engaged Tsoi Kobus Design to create a campus master plan to address campus growth and align the university with the 2008 State of Ohio Strategic Plan for Higher Education. Changing demographics, an increase in non-traditional learners, and a bubble of 1960s- and 1970s-era buildings approaching the end of their life cycles created an immediate need for the university to address critical facility deficiencies.
