In 2016, Campus Management undertook a functionality, condition and utilisation audit across the Crawley campus.

The audit was undertaken between April to July with representatives from consultants Hames Sharley who accessed a number of buildings – from lecture and seminar rooms to laboratory and instrument rooms – to record the rooms’ usage, function and condition. 

The audit provided useful information to assist Campus Management in planning, developing and managing the University’s estate and property portfolio and ultimately meet the needs of current and future students, staff and the community.  

Rooms in the following buildings will be audited as part of Phase 1 in April and May:

  • Anatomy CTEC
  • Arts
  • Bayliss

  • Engineering – Civil and Mechanical
