“…Effective execution and application of world class facility management (FM) strategies to a university's infrastructures, facilities and amenities should be considered as a strong requirement for growing the institution and improving campus environment for the benefit of the students and staff of the institution (Shin and Kim 2012). University facilities and amenities, consist of facilities that require diverse functions, such as basic education facilities, research facilities, and support facilities.…”

The purpose of this study is to present an "Self-Help" alternative approach to developing, building, managing and maintaining of campus infrastructures, facilities and amenities in Nigerian Universities and integrating facilities management, operations and maintenance as part of the engineering education. Currently, Nigerian Universities follows the traditional method of infrastructures and facilities management. Most campuses around the country have delipidated dormitories, and campus roads are in terrible and debilitated conditions. Most campuses lack running water in the dormitories, libraries, offices and laboratories. Student have to walk down two to three stories to fetch water for their use. There is chronic and persistent shortage of electricity supply on campuses. In many universities across the country, students residing on campuses experience up to five days without electricity and had to rely on kerosine lamps for studying. In a country like Nigeria, this should be unacceptable in the 21 st century because it hinders student learning and impedes campus growth and improvement. This approach centers on utilizing the services of students to lead operations, management and maintenance of infrastructures and facilities. The expected outcome is to maintain 24 hours electricity and water supply, environmentally safe dormitories and recreation areas, and clean classrooms, offices, and landscaping.

“…However, research done on university facilities in Korea has been focused mainly on space management, while the effective university facilities management reflecting in-depth opinions on the user class has been quite inadequate. Unlike other countries, in Korea, the research that is performed based on the factors that influence the learning outcomes of university facilities are not active, which leads to the need of users in the field to obtain higher education (Shin and Kim, 2012). Under all of these circumstances, applying facility management (FM) strategy to the university facilities is a strong requirement (Shin and Kim, 2012).…”

As the low birthrates in Korea intensify, the average school-age population is showing great reduction and the resources used for admission to the university are gradually decreasing as well, due to the continuing economic downturn. Therefore, in order for the university to remain competitive and keep up with the fast paced changes, it is very significant that they induce qualitative growth of university education and facilities through extensive and thorough analysis on the university facility management (UFM) for students who are the main users of university facilities. However, research done on university facilities in Korea has been focused mainly on space management, while the effective UFM reflecting in-depth opinions on the user class has been quite inadequate. Therefore, in order to improve student satisfaction and improve the efficiency of UFM, it is crucial to understand the importance and status of the UFM items. This way, an initial plan for improvement of UFM considering the priorities that actively reflect the opinions of the students is prepared in this research. For the UFM items, the eight classifications of UFM, which can be evaluated by users, and the details of the classifications are used for this research. For the UFM strategies, the first 176 performance indicators (PIs) are collected, consolidated, and deleted. Finally, eight UFM strategies are derived. In order to find out which UFM items need more focus on, importance-performance analysis (IPA) is conducted. The priority of management is determined by where each factor is located on the grid. Additionally, multiple linear regression analysis is conducted to examine the effect of the importance value on the UFM items on the importance value on the UFM strategies. Finally, the average values of importance for the strategies of UFM of two groups are compared and analyzed. As a result of the stages listed above, this research attempts to provide basic data on preparing the UFM plan. Therefore, it is possible to apply the method that reflects the needs of actual users in preparing future UFM plans throughout the research methods proposed in this research.
