Facilities - The program offers some of the most modern and attractive computer facilities at the University. It also capitalizes upon the broad expertise of University faculty and integrates course work from several other departments, and the University Physical Plant. The program enjoys close coordination and cooperation with the national award winning physical plant division of the University. A variety of cooperative education, internship, and special-problem activities can be arranged to augment the experience. Because of the broad scope of the program, it incorporates course work from several disciplines and integrates the expertise of University faculty, notably in areas such as the nationally renowned Marriott School of Management and award winning faculty in Construction Management.
Students enjoy a close advisory relationship with the program coordinator.
The department sponsors student chapters of the International Facilities Management Association and the Association of Physical Plant Administrators. These are all available and are incorporated into the program. There are a variety of internships and cooperative-education opportunities through BYU's physical plant operation as well as with local business and industry. Limited scholarships are available. However, the student is able to earn a significant portion of educational expenses through cooperative education and internships, especially in the later portion of the program .
