university office
Offices for administration, faculty work, or academic research in higher education, excluding library and maintenance support offices.
A university office is any space reserved for administration or faculty offices in an institution of higher learning. It includes spaces for academic research, but does not include support offices within libraries or maintenance facilities.
Faculty offices are included alongside central administration, and academic research can take place in this working space. The institution may be a college or university.
A classroom has a teaching function, while a library support office belongs to the library's operation. The latter and maintenance support offices remain outside this particular office meaning.
