The department is a vital part of the University Architect/Campus Planning and Design Office.
What we do:
The Department of Capital Planning and Space Management leads the university's capital planning process each year in support of the provost’s role to prioritize capital projects, programs, and funding. In addition, we work closely with the Office of the Provost to manage and implement space related policies and procedures that support the university’s near-term needs and long-term goals and priorities for responsible growth and development. To this purpose, the department interfaces and communicates regularly with the Office of the Provost, colleagues within LBRE, deans, directors and senior officers of the University.

You will provide support to develop and track Space Allocation Agreements.
Institutional Space Planning: You will provide high-level planning analysis on a wide range of space-related initiatives and occasionally may be asked to provide programmatic layouts of spaces based on preliminary criteria provided by the client.
Utilization Studies: You may lead the preparation of utilization studies, which will involve assessing space utilization campus-wide, and preparing supporting material for review by university leadership.
Other/General responsibilities:
Provide support to oversee and make recommendations on the allocation of the annual central fund allocation as part of the capital planning process.
Provide support to manage the Form1 process and cross reference the capital plan data for accuracy.
