Universities are increasingly utilizing modular construction for student housing, embracing the efficiency and cost savings it offers. Projects such as California Polytechnic State University's plan to add 3,000 beds demonstrate how modular methods expedite building timelines by up to 30%, reducing costs while preserving architectural harmony with historic campuses. Modular construction now accommodates sophisticated designs and offers a mix of custom-built components sourced from multiple manufacturers, signaling a shift toward standardized yet customizable dormitory solutions that lower maintenance demands and enhance quality for campus facilities management.
