UIC launches campuswide office space data collection initiative

The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) will soon conduct a comprehensive data collection effort to identify employee office locations across the campus. This initiative is designed to assist college and unit leaders in making informed decisions regarding space planning.

UIC employees are requested to participate by providing information about their office location and how frequently they use their offices. An automated email from planning@uic.edu, titled "Employee Office Assignment Data Entry," will be sent in mid-March. The email will contain a link to an online application where employees can log in using their NetID and password to submit the required information. The process is expected to take no more than two minutes.

The online platform will be pre-filled with employee details and feature drop-down menus for selecting space-related information. Additionally, it will provide instructions and answers to common questions.

While most employees are expected to partake in this initiative, UI Health or regional campuses employees and 0% FTE student employees are exempt. Each college and unit’s leadership is coordinating with campus planners on this data collection task.

"We look forward to your participation in this work and encourage you to enter your data as soon as you receive the email link," stated John Coronado, Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services and SCPC Co-Chair. For further inquiries or additional information, individuals can contact planning@uic.edu.
