As buildings age, their condition naturally deteriorates. Each building on campus serves a unique purpose so the balance between strategic maintenance and capital investment is unique to each building. We can measure the condition of each building using a Facility Condition Index (FCI) score and use that score to understand the big picture.

UBC Capital priorities

UBC maintains a comprehensive plan for the development and renewal of institutional infrastructure to meet evolving academic needs as well as the needs of our growing campus communities.

Construction on campus

UBC Facilities manages the construction of new buildings, modernization of existing spaces, and unplanned renewals of capital assets on the Vancouver and Okanagan campuses.

Projects on campus
