Campus of the future: Managing a matter of solid, liquid and gas
Keywords:
university, campus, decision making, management, public real estateSynopsis
University campuses, hospitals, schools, and city halls are just some examples of built environments that support public goals and have a large impact on society. Managing these buildings – often heritage on iconic locations – is a challenging task for organisations that often already struggle with decreasing public funding. They need to set an example to society and have a responsibility to implement public policies, resulting in meaningful, functional, affordable, and sustainable built environments. With the campus as her specialisation, Alexandra den Heijer uses the university as an example to illustrate what changed in 25 years time, which management matters set the current context and how research can support decision makers. With her Campus Research Team she has built a network with academics and practitioners and will continue to develop methods and tools. Examples are comprehensive databases with recent projects and smart tools that empower the users of buildings to find the best workplace, based on real-time (big) data about utilization of space. The mission is not only to support campus decision makers, but (public) real estate managers in general.
Nederlandse samenvatting:
Universiteitscampussen, ziekenhuizen, scholen en stadhuizen zijn voorbeelden van gebouwen die publieke doelen ondersteunen en een grote impact hebben de samenleving. Het managen deze gebouwen - vaak erfgoed op beeldbepalende locaties - is een uitdaging voor organisaties die vaak al worstelen met afnemende publieke budgetten. Ze moeten het goede voorbeeld geven aan de samenleving en hebben een verantwoordelijkheid om publiek beleid te implementeren, resulterend in betekenisvolle, functionele, betaalbare en duurzame gebouwen. Met de campus als haar specialisatie gebruikt Alexandra den Heijer de universiteit als voorbeeld om te illustreren wat er in 25 jaar tijd veranderd is - zowel binnen de universiteit als op de campus - voor welke uitdagingen managers staan en hoe onderzoek hun beslissingen kan ondersteunen. Met haar Campus Research Team heeft zij een netwerk gevormd, met een groot aantal Europese universiteiten en wetenschappers die zich eveneens op de campus focussen, en zal zij doorgaan met het ontwikkelen van beslissingsondersteunende methoden en instrumenten. Voorbeelden zijn databases met recente projecten en “smart tools” die de gebruikers helpen in hun zoektocht naar een passende studieplek of vergaderruimte, gebaseerd op de daadwerkelijke beschikbaarheid (gemeten via sensors) en gebruikspatronen. De missie is om niet alleen beslissers over de campus daarmee te ondersteunen, maar (publieke) vastgoedmanagers in het algemeen.
