About OCM

The Office of Classroom Management (OCM) customizes a variety of classrooms, learning spaces, workspaces, and study spaces to fit the needs of our students, faculty, and staff. We partner with University departments, teams, and community members to provide high-quality learning and teaching experiences, improve classroom scheduling processes, and share best practices and guidance. 

As the central point of contact for all general purpose classrooms, study spaces, and academic scheduling, we advocate for student and faculty needs to provide a consistent level of service and quality within ever-changing learning environments. You can also see our department's organizational chart and where we are located within Academic Support Resources (ASR).
