Surveys

Arkansas Tech is continuing its efforts to evaluate, strategize, prioritize, and plan for future improvements of its campuses. You are central to this work. This is an opportunity to help shape the future of Arkansas Tech for the next generation of students based on your experiences.

This master planning process is being led by Polk Stanley Wilcox architects (Little Rock, Ar) and Perkins+Will campus planners (Austin, Tx).

Over the past few months there have been opportunities for open house discussions and workshop sessions with the consultant team. Below are snapshots of survey results:
