Brief Introduction
Caritas University came into existence in 2005 and from its inception; the university senate has been within the administrative block which is not quite conducive. The senate building has been adequately provided for in the Caritas University’s master plan. This underscores the understanding of the master plan designers of the need for senate building which is a necessity to the university system.
A senate building is basically the administrative sector of the university. It houses the university council and senate chamber and other offices.

- In designs, problems are bound to be solved. These include: creating adequate natural/cross ventilation, circulation/traffic control, achieving aesthetically appealing structure.

- The character of the building also poses a problem
1.2 AIM
- Provide Caritas university administration a central building within which to function.
- Provide a structure that brings into focus the special character of Caritas University.
