“…In order to determine the suitability of a location for a new university campus, certain criteria need to be determined to be different criteria have been selected: land use and land value as essential criteria in addition to accessibility and mixed-use index (MXI) as optional ones. Land use is considered as an essential criterion based on the fact that universities need to be flexible to adapt to any future needs for expansion [20], [21]. Accordingly, choosing a vacant or agricultural land surrounded by an ample of open spaces and available lands would contribute greatly to the autonomy and flexibility of the campus in the future.…”

This research underscores the impact of university campuses, encompassing physical, economic, cultural, and social dimensions of their surroundings. Consequently, the selection of a suitable campus location should consider both the physical appropriateness and the preferences of key users, namely the students. This paper presents a suitability model employing the geographical information system (GIS) weighted overlay methodology to address this concern. The model employs criteria such as land use, land value, accessibility, and the mix of land uses to identify appropriate locations for university campuses in four Japanese cities. Findings reveal that suitable sites are predominantly found in the suburban areas of these cities, potentially leading to a studentification trend and social segregation between students and nonstudent residents. Additionally, placing campuses on city peripheries could strain university resources by incurring higher infrastructure costs. Therefore, decision-makers must carefully weigh location suitability against the ensuing social and economic implications to foster a successful campus-city relationship.

“…Thus, particularly since the 1950s and 1960s, planning action has become an important factor in the university concept (Muthesius, 2001). Accordingly, university campus plans are directly linked with modern urban planning and cannot be considered independent from urban plans (Christiaanse, 2006). While taking into consideration the points related to campus/university location selection, and reflecting on these selection issues, it is necessary to admit that the background reasons and results of location selections are not only physical.…”

With the growing population increase and following young population’s desire to study at the university, political authorities are supporting university and higher education investments, especially in the last 10 years. This situation has increased the number of universities considerably. Because a university will provide socioeconomic dynamism to both the development of the country and the region, choosing the right university location has become a significant problem nowadays. In line with this, this study is focused on supporting the new university location decision in a wide region in Turkey where currently the number of universities in the region is relatively low despite the high population density in the area. Alternative cities to be utilized in the study are determined particularly taking the demographic structure into consideration and various multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques are applied. Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS), and Multi-Objective Optimization on the Basis of Ratio Analysis (MOORA) are applied to a real case study. Related criteria and alternative locations are specified by consulting seven experts. Within the study, both the results of these methods are presented, and also sensitivity analyses are conducted to observe how sensitive the results are to the changes in the criteria weights. The results obtained are purposed to aid decision makers in this field.
