Service Overview

Facilities Management is responsible for operation, maintenance, and repair for all on-campus Educational & General (E&G) facilities and temporary faculty and staff housing units. E&G facilities are those supported by the University's E&G operating funds and that serve academic or administrative functions.

Facilities Management offers a wide range of services and activities to include:

  • Campus Landscape
  • Custodial Services
  • Facility Services
  • Faculty Housing
  • Planning, Design, and Construction Administration
  • Space Management
  • Campus Master Planning

Facilities Management also provides the above services to non E&G facilities/customers on a breakeven cost basis as requested.

E&G Funding

Facilities Management is funded for routine maintenance of E&G spaces as originally intended. This maintenance work is performed to offset the effects of normal "wear and tear." A good way to describe E&G responsibility is to envision a common classroom, laboratory, or office devoid of furniture, office machines, equipment, people, programs, and similar features. Anything added to the space is generally outside of the funding level of Facilities Management.

Non E&G departments/facilities are charged for all services.

E&G departments/facilities are charged for services outside of the routine maintenance scope.
