The Department of Facilities Management is responsible for ensuring that the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of all University facilities and grounds support the academic, research, and administrative functions of the University, while balancing financial and technical constraints with aesthetic and historical concerns.
On the main campus, over 230 buildings comprise over 6,400,000 square feet on 146 acres. In addition to the operations, maintenance and repair of these existing facilities, we are responsible for the planning, design, and construction management of renovations and new facilities.
The mission of Facilities Management is to support the University by enhancing the quality of physical facilities. We do this through planning, designing, engineering, constructing, and maintaining in a responsive, service-oriented, effective, and environmentally-conscious manner.
