Abstract: The University of California, Merced campus is the tenth campus in the University of California system. Collection includes
graphic representations, maps, and renderings concerning the first phase master planning of campus development.
Scope and Contents
In 1995, the Regents of the University of California selected a site in Merced County as the location for the University of
California’s tenth campus. When construction began in 2002, the campus was determined to be a 21st century example of economic,
social and environmental sustainability in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley.
The UC Merced Physical Planning, Design and Construction Archives is committed to documenting the history and evolution of
the built environment of University of California’s youngest campus, through collecting, preserving, and providing access
to the records related to campus buildings, landscape design, and infrastructure. These collections contain drawings, plans,
specifications, renderings and other artifacts. The department of Physical Planning, Design and Construction at UC Merced
has created the Physical Planning, Design and Construction Archives to provide material for scholarly research, teaching support,
preservation, and as a public service and actively encourages and promotes their use.
Access
Digital collection is open for research.
