26 Visualising opportunities

27 Higher level skills for a global economy UK Commission for Employment and Skills has calculated that the proportion of those in employment with undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications will rise from 28.7% in 2002 to 51.3% in 2022, while those employed with skills below this level will fall from 71.4% in 2002 to less than half, 48.7%. It is clear that as the economy changes universities will play an increasingly central role in developing the UK workforce. Source: UKCES (2014) Working Futures

41 What could a masterplan be for the 21 st century campus? Not a blueprint, but a framework and reference point for decision making Sets criteria for assessing individual projects within future plan Looking at full spectrum of intervention from small to large how the small moves impact on the whole estate, and vice versa Ability to provide a structure can still hold true whilst accommodating continual flux and change A soft systems approach based on multiple inputs and constantly evolving set of needs
