Classroom Scheduling

Capital Planning and Space Management (CPSM) schedules 150 general-purpose classrooms. Academic classroom requests must be entered into Banner (see below) by the department. After every department has had time to complete their semester schedule, entry of room scheduling data in Banner is restricted. After this point changes cannot be made to the schedule except by the Campus Space Coordinator in CPSM. Note, however, that non-centrally scheduled classrooms are unaffected by this restriction.

In order to utilize our classrooms effectively, departments should make every effort to schedule classes throughout the day (8:00am - 5:00pm +). Classes are most heavily scheduled MWF 9:05-9:55, 10:05-1055, 11:05-11:55, 1:05-1:55, 2:05-2:55 and TTH 9:35–10:55 and 1:35–2:55. Your chances of being assigned the classroom requested are greater outside of these times. Classes should not be scheduled TTH in the hours of 11-12 as this time is used for faculty meetings.

If a conflict arises in the scheduling of a course, contact the person in your department that handles scheduling. Your department representative will work with the Campus Space Coordinator in CPSM. The designated departmental contact person must make all change requests to CPSM.

• Requests for room changes must be submitted on a Classroom Change Form available on our web page (Download Excel Version | Download Word Version). If the change(s) cannot be made, the Campus Space Coordinator will contact the department representative.
• Classes scheduled at standard Georgia Tech times will be given first consideration if a room conflict should arise.
• Please schedule your nonstandard time classes in your department spaces if possible.
• If there are two courses requesting the same room, the course with the higher enrollment will be assigned the requested room and an alternate will be found for the other course, regardless of priorities.
• CPSM must be notified of any changes or cancellations of a course, as the room vacated could be needed by another class.
• CPSM must be notified of any changes in a classroom (replacing desks with tables, or changing the configuration, painting, or renovations).
• If there are problems with classrooms (air conditioning, heating, lighting, etc.), please have your department coordinator call your area manager in Facilities.
• For equipment requests, the Office of Information Technology should be contacted.

Banner

The meeting time block on the Banner form SSASECT is utilized by academic departments for requesting centrally scheduled classrooms. The "Session" field on the first page of SSASECT must contain an "A" (on-campus, in assigned space) in order to receive a centrally-scheduled classroom assignment. If this field contains any other value, no classroom assignment will be made regardless of entries on the meeting time block.

Special Event Scheduling

The Space Management Department schedules events in general purpose classrooms. In order to avoid conflicts with regularly scheduled classes, reservation requests will be processed after a semester begins. Go to the Event Scheduling page for further details.
