Housing for Growing Student Populations
“Total undergraduate enrollment is projected to increase by 2 percent (from 16.6 million to 17.0 million students) between 2018 and 2029.”
The growth in student numbers might mean you’re planning to build new student accommodation on your campus. But, from experience, you probably know that conventional construction causes disruption on your campus for extended periods and is notoriously subject to delays.
Fortunately, there’s a better way: Modular construction for student dorms.
The modules are manufactured in a factory, away from your site. The modules are then transported to the campus site and craned into place on the already prepared foundation. The stacked modules are connected together and hooked up to local utilities.
The resulting modular student accommodation is indistinguishable from a conventionally built dormitory — but it’s faster to build and involves much less disruption!
Both options are bad, so of course it’s best to be able to rely on your dormitory building being completed on time to house those new students! Prefab student accommodation is the answer.

Bear in mind, though, that modular design involves knowledge that not all architects have. We offer architectural design services for large projects, such as student dorms. Our design team is experienced with modular architecture and construction.
Your modular dorm building is customizable to your requirements and your budget. With our expert team, you’ll discuss the various possibilities for your dormitory floor plan, options for room sizes, noise reduction measures, safety features, insulation, cladding, ADA-compliance, and so on.
What’s the Process for Modular Student Housing Construction?
Each module is sized so it fits on a truck for transportation to your site. The modules will need to be craned into place and connected to one another, so you’ll need to make sure there’s room at your site for the necessary equipment. We can advise you on the logistics of transportation and craning.
The building needs to be connected to utilities and, depending on your design, there may be cladding that needs to be added after the modules are connected together. (Or it may have already been added to each module at the factory.) The façade you choose has a major impact on the overall aesthetic of your dormitory building. It’s possible to choose something that blends with other buildings on campus, or something that is distinctive and different from nearby buildings.
By using modular construction, the resulting student dorm building will be as good quality (or better!) than a conventionally built structure — but it will be constructed in significantly less time.
And, if you compare modular dormitory prices to conventionally built dorms, you’ll likely be pleasantly surprised. Largely due to the shortened construction period, and being able to purchase materials for the factory in large quantities (rather than project by project), modular construction companies are able to be competitive on price!
