Physical Access

The physical access coordinator works with various departments and offices at the University of Minnesota to ensure optimal accessibility of our physical environment.

This includes:

Plan review for new or remodeled spaces.
Specific accessibility-related modifications to existing spaces.
Technical consultation University departments and offices wishing to improve the accessibility of their physical space.
Investigation and correction of access problems to University property.

During this current heavy construction phase, the physical access coordinator is involved in ensuring access through and around construction zones within the University of Minnesota area.
