Space has been perhaps the scarcest resource that the Faculty of Medicine has encountered in recent years. Administrative Services has been managing space for the Faculty of Medicine for many years and the Director has served as Vice-Chair of the Space Committee for many years. Requests for new space or the moving of offices and labs must flow through the Space Committee for approval. Space maps and related forms are managed using a proprietary software system known as Apperture.  This committee is also actively involved with the consultants as aspects of space programming for the new building.
