THE XAVIER University-Ateneo de Cagayan inked a partnership with Cebu Landmasters Inc. for the construction of the ‘Campus of the Future’, which features the Masterson Campus and Manresa Town.

XU and Cebu Landmasters signed the Memorandum of Agreement last August 20 to acquire 14.3 hectares of Xavier’s Manresa Property in uptown Cagayan de Oro.

The new XU Masterson Campus is dubbed ‘Campus of the Future’.

The main masterplan elements include an abundance of open and green spaces – the main plaza, interconnected courtyards, campus-wide wireless connectivity, bike lanes, sports facilities, an amphitheater, and a University Forum which incorporates a museum, theatre, and a gallery.

The project will be constructed in phases and campus development is expected to start in the second quarter of 2022, in line with the present Covid19 quarantine restrictions and protocols.

The new campus is fit for the new normal as it provides innovative and smart components for synchronous and asynchronous learning, pioneering research, artistic expression, and whole-person formation, XU said.
