Space Audits
The next audit of teaching spaces is in October 2022.
These audits inform our investment planning for the University and assists us in providing better teaching environments. The audits occur at North Terrace only and collects information on space where teaching is scheduled in Syllabus+. They count the number of students in each room, each hour between 8am and 9pm each day.
For more information, contact Matthew Schapel.

Space charging
There are charges applied to all internal space occupied by a faculty, division or operational unit. Charges cover room rent, electricity and cleaning. The ‘space charging model’ applies to all University owned and leased buildings, and is determined based on the room type, condition and occupancy.
To find the rental charge of a room, go to UniSpace Home and select View Room Data. The columns on the far right identify the Space Charge Status (included or excluded) along with applicable charges.
If the room function, condition, occupancy or area changes, there will be an impact on the space charge. Most room changes as a result of refurbishments or renovations, are notified to the UniSpace team by Infrastructure staff. Other changes (e.g. addition of a work station or change in room type) must be notified to the UniSpace team by the school or area.
Space can be requested or relinquished by a school or area.
To request additional space, email unispace@adelaide.edu.au and include;
- Name of requestor
- Campus
- Department or area
- Contact details
- Description of the space required and the proposed use e.g. 3 offices for staff members
- Desired location and relationship with others e.g. Napier/Ligertwood, access to Law Library
- When the space is required
- For how long
- Whose authority this request is being made on behalf of.
A cost estimate will be provided.
