As one of the top public research universities in the world, the UW is pleased to welcome all of our international students, who hail from nearly 100 countries. While the COVID-19 pandemic has made this an unusual and challenging time for all of us, I know that the coming year holds incredible promise and we are so pleased to count you among our students as we navigate this unprecedented time. One of our University’s greatest strengths is our richly diverse community of students who bring a wealth of perspectives and lived experience to our shared learning environment. Whether you are living on campus this year or studying from another part of the world, your unique voice contributes immeasurably to our academic community. Our University is committed to ensuring that every student feels welcome and comfortable in order to do their best learning. You are all valued members of our community regardless of nationality, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, religious views, area of study or scholarship. What makes each of us unique is what makes our whole University great. While the pandemic has unfortunately limited some of the hands-on exploration of our city and region that we usually encourage international students to discover, there are still many meaningful and exciting ways for you to engage with and learn from your classmates, faculty and UW community, both virtually and – safely – in person. However you choose to pursue your studies, I hope you will make time to forge new friendships, indulge your curiosity and explore what our University and the world have to offer. Welcome! Sincerely, 3 Welcome! It’s such an honor to be part of your welcome to our beautiful university, city, and region - I’m so glad you’ve joined us at the University of Washington. This year might feel different, but there are so many people here who are excited to welcome and celebrate you. As we navigate this challenging time together, FIUTS will play an important part of your adjustment. I hope you will take advantage of the resources and advice available to you as a new member of our community. FIUTS (Foundation for International Understanding Through Students) is an independent nonprofit organization that was founded on this campus seventy-two years ago by faculty and community members who were passionate about the power of friendship to build bonds of peace. To this day, our strong and unique partnership between the UW and FIUTS creates unrivaled opportunities for powerful cross-cultural learning and exploration both on and off campus. FIUTS offers an array of opportunities for you to get involved, make new friends, and to share your culture and experiences with others. From social activities to meaningful conversations, FIUTS is a vibrant and active organization where you can expand your network, practice new skills, and mentor other students. Through FIUTS, you can form a connection to people who represent every corner of our planet and become part of a community - international students, U.S. students, alumni, and community members - who share a dedication to global exploration. I hope you will look to FIUTS as an important source of support and community during your time as a Husky and beyond. Best of luck at the University of Washington.

Per direction from the Office of Financial Management, we are providing a PDF version of the Request to [email protected], as well as submitting electronically through the Capital Budgeting System. The UW’s Capital Budget Request is the result of detailed planning efforts carefully integrated with the UW’s key strategies to meet the challenges of the future. The process is mission-driven, requires an objective search for needs that support key strategies, focuses heavily on efficient utilization of existing resources, and proposes accelerated care for those facilities and infrastructures in need of the most attention. The projects identified in our request, and in the 10 Year Capital Plan, are necessary to sustain the mission of the University of Washington on the Bothell, Seattle and Tacoma campuses. I would like to thank you for your support throughout the budget development process. Please let us know if you have any questions regarding this submittal, or need any additional information.

  • Emergency Evacuation and Operations Plan
    Emergency Evacuation Operations Plan UW TOWER BSC Area A 2019 Introduction Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) developed this model Emergency Evacuation and Operations Plan (EEOP) to assist departments in preparing for building emergencies as expected and required by University policy, the Seattle Fire Code, and the Washington Administrative Code (WAC). This plan is intended for use by multiple departments and may be completed as a departmental or building evacuation plan. For buildings which are taller than four stories (High Rise Buildings), refer to additional requirements in Appendix P. It is expected that departments will customize and complete this plan to meet their specific needs, operations, and locations. Departments and/or colleges with multiple buildings may develop a single plan for their facilities, as long as building specific information for each facility is included in Appendices A through D. Review and dialog among multiple departments within a single building and/or individual fire zones must be part of the process of completing a building specific EEOP. Staff from EH&S are available to provide technical assistance, including reviewing a final draft of your EEOP. The model EEOP was written to complement and supplement the University of Washington All- Hazards Emergency Management Plan (EMP) for campus operations during large scale or campus- wide emergencies. A copy of the UW EMP should be maintained in your department. Copies of the campus plan are available from the Office of Emergency Management and online at their website. Reviewing the campus EMP may be helpful while completing the attached EEOP. See Appendix J for more details.
