ARPL 771 Facilities Management Capstone
In FM capstone, students propose, research, and develop a response to a facilities management question or challenge under the mentoring of a faculty critic. It can be practice-based, involving development of a facilities master plan or similar document for a real or hypothetical case facility. It can also be research-based, involving development or critique of best practices, analysis of trends in the FM profession or facilities industry, or other approved topics. In all cases, students address strategic issues, conduct research and analysis, and generate strategic recommendations and conclusions.
