The Office of Planning, Design & Construction is responsible for the development of the physical environment on campus. This responsibility starts with the development of the long-range master plans and visioning guides for all campuses of the Missouri State University system and continues through the development and completion of construction projects. In everything we do, we work to build a better Missouri State.
