Master Plan
The University of Connecticut Health Center (UCHC) Master
Plan was developed to guide the physical development on the
Farmington campus for the next ten years. During the
preceding years the health care system has been subject to a
number of challenges. Among these are reductions in federal
funding and increased competition from larger for-profit and
not-for-profit hospitals. During the same period, the
research profile of the School of Medicine has grown, and
the Dental School is recognized as the best in the country
for the strength of its basic science based program and
research active faculty.
The primary purpose of the Campus Master Plan is to guide
the physical development of the campus in supporting the
evolution of programs as they change and grow during the
next decade.
