CSU Five-Year Capital Outlay Plan

The primary objective of the Five-Year Plan for the California State University (CSU) is to provide facilities appropriate to the CSU’s approved educational programs to create environments conducive to learning, and to ensure that the quality and quantity of facilities at the 23 universities serve the students equally well.
