Missouri Sen. Brian Williams touts unprecedented investment in UMSL, north St. Louis County
Jul 11
As we approach the 60th anniversary of our founding next year, the University of Missouri–St. Louis is setting course toward a renewed and reimagined future that will serve our university, region and far beyond for decades to come.
Over the past several years, we came together to develop, align and champion our Campus Strategic Plan, Strategic Enrollment Plan and our recently approved Campus Master Plan – all of which serve as the foundations for our future growth and investments.
Dramatic transformation is underway at UMSL as we collectively seek to rise up our university community and our region. We are steadily moving forward on our ambitious plans and we have launched this site to serve as a home to share and communicate these efforts.
Please check back often as we will update and expand this site to include the work underway and our continued progress.

Building our Academic Community
UMSL is working to establish and enhanced academic core on its North Campus, which includes the transition of key academic programs and facilities from the South Campus to the North Campus in concert with a comprehensive renovation of classroom, laboratory and community spaces to serve students for decades to come.
business and workforce district
UMSL joins St. Louis County and the State of Missouri in envisioning an ambitious plan designed to improve the quality of life and economic impact throughout the St. Louis region and beyond by creating a North St. Louis County Business and Workforce District anchored on the UMSL South Campus.
Richter Family Welcome and Alumni Center
The Richter Family Welcome and Alumni Center – which will encompass a large portion of the J.C. Penney Building – will be a place to welcome prospective students and families to UMSL while simultaneously giving those who’ve already experienced its transformative power a place to return and give back.
A New Home for UMSL Accelerate
A catalyst that inspires and develops entrepreneurship and innovation, UMSL Accelerate has a mission to foster a vibrant ecosystem to educate, innovate and collaborate. Private investments have already yielded successful outcomes. We envision a new home for UMSL Accelerate that will serve as a hub for university-led accelerators and as a gathering place for collaboration among startup founders and the university community.
Revitalizing University Libraries
Located at the heart of the UMSL’s North Campus, the TJ Library is a cultural treasure that attracts hundreds of thousands of patrons annually. The regional, national and global reach of the library is largely due to it serving as home of the St. Louis Mercantile Library. UMSL is working to create a more modern, engaging and flexible library to meet the needs of scholars and library patrons now and well into the future.
