UMN Focus Groups

Help redesign the St. Paul Campus by sharing your feedback via one of the opportunities below, specific to your student standing (undergraduate, graduate, and all students). 

A message from and event hosted by the University of Minnesota:

We need your help in shaping the future of the University of Minnesota!

The University is in the design phase for a new St. Paul Campus Center.  This new facility will replace the existing St. Paul Student Center and Dining Center and will combine student center functions with residential and retail dining, retail, meeting and events space, and a re-imagined St. Paul campus library.

You are invited to participate in a Focus Group and/or a Concept Exploration Workshop as we plan and design the new St. Paul Campus Center. As current Students, your feedback is especially valuable.

Please reach out with any questions you may have about the Focus Groups and Workshop to Dana Murdoch, Design Project Manager, Capital project Management murdoch@umn.edu.  

We appreciate your consideration and the opportunity to hear directly from you!
