Space Management
Each space on campus is specifically designed to meet various purposes from faculties and departments to advance teaching and research, support the students’ academic mission and enable staff to function effectively.
Space is a university asset and managed centrally through Facilities & Operations. The Space Planning and Stewardship team works with faculties and departments to understand the vision or objective behind a space request, analyze opportunities and quantify space requirements. We also produce conceptual plans, obtain estimates and create scope-of-work documents so clients can make informed decisions.
Space on campus is managed to align with the priorities laid out in the University Strategic Plan as well as those that accompany government funding.
