BNIM and RFD were selected for Master Planning and Programming for the College of Agriculture at Kansas State University. The study identified an additional need for 125,000 GSF of research space; 59,000 GSF of teaching space; 79,000 GSF of office space; and 122,000 GSF of greenhouse space for a total of 385,000 GSF. The proposed expansion of facilities will be addressed by building two new buildings, a set of three new greenhouses and renovating existing research and teaching space to provide opportunities for novel research and contemporary models of teaching and collaboration to occur. The first phase of the project will add 224,400 GSF of teaching and research space along with 40,000 GSF of greenhouse, head house and plant growth room. While the Phase 1 new facilities will not accomplish all of the growth goals identified, the focus on research space will greatly impact the resources of the college, as well as the overall campus, and play a critical role in moving K-State towards the goals set forth in the 2025 strategic plan.
