The Office of Facilities Planning and Development (FPD) serves a key
role in the conceptual development of projects for the Dayton Campus,
the Lake Campus and remote facilities of Wright State University.
FPD oversees project program development, project design, capital
planning, space management, development of master plans and works
with donors on facility development opportunities. The Office of FPD,
which reports directly to the Provost, fosters leadership in environmentally
responsible design and construction.
In collaboration with university committees, departments and officials,
the Office of FPD will develop, implement and maintain a flexible
facilities plan to support the specific recruitment and retention
targets, activities for undergraduate, graduate, and funded research.
Welcome to the Facilities Planning Web site. Inside these pages you will
find information about various campus projects underway. Projects may be in
planning, architectural design, or construction phases. If you have questions
about projects in the development, planning, architectural or design phases, send a message to
facilities_planning@wright.edu.
If you have questions about projects in the construction phase, send a message
to construction@wright.edu.
Please regularly refer to our Web site for updated information regarding campus
accessibility and also for current and future project information.

The recently constructed Diggs Laboratory is now officially rated LEED-NC Gold
effective November 2008. The LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
building rating system is the nationally accepted benchmark administered by the
US Green Building Council for the design, construction, and operation of high
performance green buildings. LEED promotes a whole-building approach to sustainability
through a variety of energy and water saving methods, and also includes quality of
atmosphere for occupants. A research laboratory typically consumes four times more
energy than a normal classroom building. Diggs Lab uses 40% less energy than the
standard laboratory, according to energy modeling calculations. This prestigious
award will place Wright State University at the forefront of green building design,
since Diggs Lab is the first laboratory in Ohio to receive the LEED-NC Gold status.
