Laboratory Utilization<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>University</strong>’s guideline for evaluating<br />
classroom utilization is scheduling at least 30<br />
hours per week, and student station occupancy<br />
rate <strong>of</strong> 65%. <strong>The</strong> utilization fi gures show that<br />
UNK is near the targeted classroom utilization<br />
<strong>of</strong> 30 hours per week.<br />

Classroom Utilization<br />
(Weekly Hours Scheduled -- Fall 2005)<br />
2006 - 2015<br />
<strong>The</strong> chart below reveals that rooms seating 30-<br />
39 students and 40-59 students are the closest<br />
to reaching target utilization, with 28.1 hours<br />
per week, and 29.5 hours per week. Present<br />
class scheduling results in rooms with 10-19<br />
seats being furthest from target values. UNK<br />
does not utilize rooms with over 200 seats.<br />
A project presently being programmed will<br />
further reduce use <strong>of</strong> lecture halls with over<br />
100 seats, and increase use <strong>of</strong> smaller rooms,<br />
increasing overall utilization.<br />
