These procedures guide the scheduling of classes and events:
Exclusive Use
Therapy rooms in the suite used by the Speech and Language Literacy Center are classified as "exclusive use" areas.
Priorities
Scheduling procedures require that the following priorities be honored:
- Degree programs
- Certificate programs
- Program-Related Review Courses
- Continuing Education
- Degree Program-Related Workshops
- Unrelated Workshops
- Other Review Courses
- Unrelated ad hoc events
- Third party rentals (but once a contract is signed we honor that contract)
Priority Use
Classrooms that have been classified for "priority use" must be scheduled according to the following parameters:
- Day
Room 07 - Friday-Saturdays from 7:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. for the Executive MBA Program
Rooms 05, 09, 11 - Saturdays from 7:30 a.m. - 3 p.m. for the Executive and Fellows MBA Program
- Evening
Rooms 41, 60A - Education Counseling courses
Room 24 - Education Physical Science courses
Room 62 - Education Mathematical Science courses
Class Time
Due to different departmental class times, classes must be scheduled according to these limitations. For example, most Education classes begin at 4:30 p.m. and end at 7 p.m. whereas most evening MBA classes begin at 6:30 p.m. and end at 9 p.m. These differences eliminate potential interdepartmental use of the classrooms.
Class Size
The first priority for scheduling of classes is in accommodating class size. Classes with larger enrollment are scheduled first.
Class Technology
Classes that require specific technology are accommodated after class size and time restrictions have been evaluated.
Classroom Arrangement
Faculty preferences for specific room arrangements will be honored after class size, time restrictions, and technology requirements have been met. Please know that the Timonium team will work diligently to find a way to meet faculty needs.
Classroom Utilization by Department
A specific number of classroom slots are reserved each semester for department projections that were determined in the construction process of Timonium. The anticipated use on Monday-Thursday from 4 - 10 p.m. is specified in the initial space projections below.
- Monday - ED 8, GB 9, CS 2, MM 1
