We take great pride in ensuring that students, staff and faculty in the Dillard community enjoy a safe, clean and comfortable environment for living, learning and working.

Mission

The mission of Dillard University’s Division of Facilities Management & Real Estate Planning is to build and maintain, at reasonable costs, safe and user-friendly facilities that allow individuals to achieve the mission and goals of the University, as they interact socially within healthy living-learning environments.

Vision

The Dillard University campus is a walker’s delight. The campus footprint is well designed, carefully planned, and landscaped for easy and safe access. Viewed by passersby, its black wrought-iron gates and gleaming white buildings on spacious green grounds provide a stately, dignified image of a classic institution of higher learning. Viewed from inside its gates, Dillard’s academic and campus life facilities incorporate the latest technologies to enhance teaching, learning, and applied academic research. Both indoor and outdoor recreational facilities abound within an environment of wireless Internet technology and safety monitoring and alert systems. University residents and commuters enjoy close proximity and secured access to a college-town complex of retail outlets which have the look and feel of a well-planned and maintained urban development.
