Shaping and caring for Northeasternās Oakland campusĀ
In Oaklandās vibrant, tight-knit community, every space on our historic campus is designed with care to spark collaboration, inspire discovery, and strengthen connections among our students, faculty, and staff, as well as with the surrounding Bay Area community.
Northeasternās Planning, Real Estate, and Facilities (PREF) team plans, creates, and maintains these spaces. We are part of Northeasternās broader PREF division and share its mission, but our work reflects our unique spirit, people, and culture.
This site is your resource for all things PREF Oakland. We invite you to learn more about how we support your campus experience and help nurture the close community that makes Oakland such a special part of Northeasternās global network.
