What is Space Management & Planning?

Space Planning and Management provides support, analysis, and accurate space inventory information, aiding campus officials and administrators in making informed business and educational decisions related to space allocation and utilization. Space Planning and Management continues to expand its capability to develop and distribute information about space usage on campus. The space needs of the university can be better served by increasing the awareness of space issues on campus and continuing to bring faculty and staff into the space allocation, utilization, and/or reassignment process. Your role in providing updated and accurate information on a regular basis is critical to ensure the reports and consultation Space Planning and Management provided to campus leadership is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions about space related data, please reach out to space@uncw.edu.

It is important to remind all employees of the Space Allocation Policy for UNCW. As units plan for future space needs, please consult with Space Planning and Management to ensure your request aligns within the campus space planning process. We are happy to walk with you through this process and even assist you with completing any Space Requests.

Please reach out to Dr. Andy Mauk, Associate Provost of Institutional Research & Planning if you have questions.
