Campus Renewal

California State University, Long Beach is home to more than 322 acres of open spaces, learning areas and collaborative facilities that together form the stage upon which students learn, grow and thrive.

Our campus is a meaningful part of the university experience, offering a sense of belonging to all who spend time here. Its infrastructure and landscape must continue to adapt to our community’s evolving needs while preserving our campus for generations.

With your support, we will revitalize outdoor areas, modernize and update our infrastructure, and refresh and refurbish our learning environments so that all students can feel inspired, included and secure in their surroundings. 

Opportunities for Investment

Provide Equitable Access to All

CSULB is committed to ensuring that all campus members have equal access to and the opportunity to participate in all programs and activities. Updates to walkways, roads, paths and stairways, as well as improved seating and lighting in our sports facilities, will ensure usability and access for the Beach community.

Advance Sustainable and Regenerative Initiatives

In line with the President’s Commission on Sustainability, which aims to integrate sustainability into all aspects of the university, we will modernize our central plant, decarbonize our campus, implement clean stormwater strategies and convert all university vehicles to alternative energy sources. We will reforest campus green spaces and provide natural shade to pedestrian walkways in a way that is sensitive to our native environment and climate.

Generate Learning Opportunities Beyond the Conventional Classroom

We will provide an environment that is safe, accessible and functional by improving study areas, adding outdoor classrooms and updating necessary infrastructure. Equally important to the physical environment of the university are the complex natural systems that coexist around us. We will refresh and integrate our ornamental gardens, outdoor public spaces and courtyards into alternative learning modalities. By elevating campus entrances to include iconic landmarks, we will create spaces for students to capture and share their experiences at The Beach, all while celebrating our identity.
