The University Space Committee (USC), a sub-committee of the Campus Development Team, oversees reallocations of University space and the long-range University Space Plan. This includes decisions on space allocations with multiple divisions inquiring for the space and providing guidance for acquisition of additional space. The committee ensures that all space usage aligns with the University’s strategic plans.

The committee also works on guidelines and standards for space utilization.

To request a new allocation of space, please email Campus Planning & Development at campus-planning@uiowa.edu. Requests will be shared with the University Space Committee for review, as appropriate.
