HSC Space Allocation

Space at The University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center is allocated to colleges or departments and tracked in the FAMIS space management database, the official record of space allocation for The University of New Mexico.

Requests for new space or space “swaps” with another college or department may be made by completing a space request form.  There are separate committees established to review requests for research space and non-research space.  Each of these committees evaluates space requests and prepares recommendations to the chancellor for Health Sciences. Research space requests are administered by the HSC Office of Research. All other HSC space requests (non-research) are administered by HSC administration. Once space is designated to a college/school, department, or center, the unit decides on assignments within that space.

To submit a request:

1. Complete either the research space request form or non-research space request from, as appropriate
2. Upload a letter of support (required) from the requesting school dean, department chair or equivalent,
3. Upload space map illustrating requested space (available from your school or department FAMIS administrator)
