Contact Planning, Design and Construction

We look after the campus planning, real estate, space allocation, construction and health and safety for the Kennesaw State community.

We strive to make the most out of the university’s resources by envisioning new facilities across our campus locations to enhance the teaching, learning, living and working experiences for students, faculty and staff.

Please reach out to our department if you have any questions or concerns.
