The context 🎓
Academic excellence is essential. Delivering it from a modern campus designed to support growth makes all the difference.
With rising student numbers, new programmes and increasing expectations around quality and experience, the school made a decisive move: relocating to a campus fully aligned with its long-term ambitions.
30,000 square meters, 90 teaching spaces, and over 9,000 students.
A bold vision… and a major challenge for the timetabling and planning teams, responsible for managing the transition of more than 140 programmes into an new estate.
No historical room usage data.
No room for error.
Just hundreds of possible scenarios and one priority: ensure a seamless student experience from day one.
Because relocating a campus also means rethinking student flows, space allocation, resource distribution, pressure points and peak period.
In short: making a campus operational before it has ever been used, with no reference points, no habits and no existing operating model.
An impossible challenge? Not with ADE Campus🚀
To meet this challenge, the business school chose ADE Campus to take back control.
With data-driven scheduling and space management at its core, the institution was able to secure its decisions, remove uncertainty and model how the campus would actually function.
No more timetabling in the dark.
Every decision was grounded in reliable, shared and transparent data. Timetabling shifted from a logistical task into a strategic lever, supporting both the academic and organisational growth of the business school.
Analysis. Anticipation. Modelling.
These three pillars were key to delivering a successful transition and unlocking the full potential of the new campus.
