Schools, colleges, and universities have become centres for lifelong learning. They are increasingly expected to serve varied user groups and are focal points for education, student life, research, sports and cultural activities. They are designed to serve today's community while anticipating future requirements.

Omicron customarily manages complex academic projects involving large consultant teams, detailed technical requirements, sophisticated user groups, and extensive community input. Clients demand validation that projects can be achieved within scope and budget and will open their doors on time.

Omicron's Education Studio brings wide experience and strategic thinking to the task of developing education facilities which can accommodate all aspects of learning, including:

• Post Secondary Facilities
• Laboratories
• IT and Research Server Centres
• K-12 Schools
• Infrastructure and Engineering Systems
• Due Diligence Building Assessments
• Master Development Planning
