Aggie Ascent outlines a $265 million phased, gift-driven approach that allows UC Davis to advance projects as leadership gifts and partnerships are secured. Early priorities include revenue-generating and high-impact facilities that expand community engagement and elevate game-day atmosphere, including:
- UC Davis Health Stadium: A reimagined fan experience anchored by new premium seating, suites, and a hospitality concourse. The $50 million expansion will include a special event space to be used year-round by the university community.
- Woody Wilson Track & Field Complex: A new NCAA-compliant, eight-lane facility with west-facing spectator seating, integrating all events — including throws — into a single venue with an option to add team spaces and restrooms with a total cost of $14.5 million.
- Golf Training Center: A 350-yard driving range, with short game and putting greens, that will have dual roles serving our golf programs as well as the surrounding communities. The anticipated project cost $18.7 million.
Future phases will expand and elevate Baseball, Soccer, and the University Credit Union Center venues. A new Softball stadium with locker rooms, team spaces, and fan amenities will join the golf training center to transform south campus as LaRue Field has been designated for redevelopment after 2035.
