Facilities & Planning

Welcome to 
Facilities & Planning

Planning Smart. Growing Together.

Overseeing four academic buildings and two parking garages, Facilities & Planning provides support services to build and maintain the buildings, grounds, and infrastructure of our beautiful 57-care campus.

Skilled staff work behind the scenes to coordinate campus planning, building operations and maintenance, manage the allocation of campus space, and to ensure environmental health and safety and public safety. 

The Facilities & Planning unit is comprised of four distinct areas:

Facilities Planning

The Facilities Planning team supports the growth of the campus and its built environment by overseeing the administration and design of capital projects, leading renovations, and managing all campus space.

Facilities Management

The Facilities Management team is dedicated to maintaining a clean, safe and positive campus environment for students, staff, faculty and visitors who use our grounds, buildings and auxiliary services. The campus community may initiate a facilities request by visiting the Facilities Work Request Website. 

Environmental Health and Safety

The Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) mission is about safety, education, and service for the Universities at Shady Grove community. The EHS Unit supports laboratory safety, occupational safety, environmental compliance and hazardous waste management on the USG campus.

Public Safety

The Public Safety office staffs the security desks in Buildings III and IV and routinely patrols all buildings, grounds and parking areas. They also provide support in a number of other areas including the CCTV camera system, the Behavioral Assessment Team, key and access requests, emergency preparedness, and the emergency alert system.
