This title conveys the University’s ongoing commitment to extend its research and creative capacities within the context of the city and region, develop a strong and enduring cultural and artistic presence, and effect positive change in the community. Over its history, UNC Charlotte has transformed into a doctorate-granting, research institution of considerable size and scope. The 2010 Master Plan addresses the University’s expanding mission, growing student body, increasingly diverse people and programs, and emergence as a keystone institution of strategic importance in the region. Campus-planning exercises in 1995 and 2000 established principles for the physical layout of the University. Emphasizing a traditional commons approach to education with internal quadrangles, the principles enabled the growth of a memorable campus core, integral to a thriving research campus.
