About
Mission of Haskell Indian Nations University:
The mission of Haskell Indian Nations University is to build the leadership capacity of our students by serving as the leading institution of academic excellence, cultural and intellectual prominence, and holistic education that addresses the needs of Indigenous communities.
Facilities Management supports this mission by ensuring that Haskell’s physical environment—its buildings, grounds, infrastructure, and learning spaces—remains safe, reliable, culturally respectful, and aligned with the needs of Indigenous students and communities. Through preventive maintenance, environmental stewardship, and operational support across 320 acres and 44 campus buildings, the department provides the essential foundation for academic excellence and student success.
The Facilities Management Department coordinates with the Office of Facilities Management and Construction (OFMC) to support Haskell Indian Nations University’s mission to be the best university for Native American students.
Our team plans and delivers regularly scheduled preventive maintenance, manages repairs and improvements, and supports future renovations, additions, and construction projects. Facilities staff work to operate and maintain approximately 320 acres and 44 buildings that serve Haskell students, faculty, staff, and guests.
