The Ohio State University at Mansfield[1] campus in Richland County, Ohio, is a coeducational public university founded in 1958. It was created through a partnership between Mansfield-area citizens and the state of Ohio. The Ohio Board of Regents designated Mansfield as a site for an OSU regional campus. Soon after, local citizens mounted a major campaign to acquire the 640 beautifully wooded acres on which the campus facilities are situated.
Its 644-acre campus is situated in a small town in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, the North Central Ohio region, with easy access to Columbus and Cleveland. The campus offers 7 bachelor degree programs and 3 master degree programs. Students can start at Mansfield and finish their degrees at the Columbus campus with one of Ohio State’s 170+ majors. The Bromfield Library of the OSU mansfield campus provides access to all the resources of The Ohio State University and Ohio Link
In the early 2000s, the Mansfield Campus Master Plan was launched to establish a framework and long-range (ten-year) vision of the future Mansfield Campus. The Campus Master Plan intends to provide for conserving the University's and College's finite and irreplaceable resources, unifying and integrating campus development, creating individual institution identities, improving the quality of campus environment by a commitment to strong planning and design principles, strengthening linkages between the institutions and the community. The attached site drawings demonstrate the vision of the plan.
