Description
Summary:This paper discusses performance measurement in space utilisation at the university. Using planned timetabling of rooms usage, data are collected through interviews and questionnaire survey. The analysis shows that UFO rate for Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) is as good as in the United States and United Kingdom. This paper suggests that in order to increase utilisation rate, HEIs should consider occupancy rate as it is the determining factor affecting the utilisation rate. The occupancy rate is derived from the number of students occupying the designated teaching and learning space.
