CONCLUSION
THE CHULA VISTA UNIVERSITY AND INNOVATION DISTRICT SITE IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE CALI-BAJA MEGAREGION, AN AREA CATEGORIZED BY:
• ECONOMY THAT IS VIBRANT, GROWING, AND INTEGRALLY TIED TO THE BORDER
• BARRIERS THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED TO REALIZE THE AREA’S
FULL POTENTIAL
• EDUCATION THAT DOES NOT MEET CURRENT AND PROJECTED
DEMAND ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BORDER

SCENARIOS
City established goals that measure the likelihood the
scenario will realize its full potential as an educational,
economic, and physical anchor for Chula Vista and the larger
Cali-Baja Megaregion.
Location value proposition that measures the scenario’s ability to

WHAT IF WE COMBINED OUR
TOP PERFORMING SCENARIOS
INTO ONE IDEA?
VISION
A BI-NATIONAL CAMPUS that leverages the border as a laboratory to attract
students from both the U.S. And Mexico, offers degrees and skills training
specific for the bi-national region, and serves as a catalyst for growth and
economic development.
Un CAMPUS BI-NACIONAL que utiliza la frontera como laboratorio para atraer
estudiantes de ambos lados de la frontera con licienciatura y formación
profesional específica para la región internacional entre los Estados Unidos y
Mexico.
VISION
BI-LINGUAL
OFFERING COURSES IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH TO PREPARE
PROFESSIONALS PROFICIENT IN BOTH LANGUAGES.
BI-CULTURAL
EMBRACING THE DIVERSE CULTURES OF THE UNITED STATES AND MEXICO TO
PREPARE STUDENTS FOR OPPORTUNITIES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BORDER.
ée
BI-NATIONAL
LEVERAGING THE BORDER LOCATION AS A LABORATORY TO CULTIVATE AND
STRENGTHEN BI-NATIONAL EXCHANGES.
SCENARIOS
Scenario Definition:
Bi-National campus is a multi-institutional campus composed
of at least one American and one Mexican institution.
Satisfies the vast majority of city goals with an increase in
education provision that prepares students for careers
spanning the US-MX border. The scenario serves the shifting
demographics in the region and additionally addresses pent
up Mexican demand for higher education.
Fully leverages the location value proposition by elevating
the profile of the project to the bi-national stage, capitalizing
on the regional border economy and demographics.
Presents some challenges to start up because of the multiple
partners and the lack of precedents. An elevated project with
strong vision and leadership will be critical to success.
Capitalizes on each partner institutions’ funding eligibility to
attract a diverse range of funders to support the project.
