HS Building Management manages badge access for Magnuson Health Sciences, the Foege Building, ARCF, Health Sciences Education Building, and South Campus Center.
- UW Husky Cards automatically provide 24/7 access to the Magnuson Health Sciences, Foege, Health Sciences Education Building, and South Campus Center perimeter doors. No request is necessary.
- If has been several months since you have visited a door, you may need to tap twice on the reader. The first tap loads your information, the second tap unlocks the door.
- Access is automatically discontinued when personnel leave the UW or replace their card. HS Building Management updates card access when personnel transfer departments.
-
To obtain a new or replacement Husky Card, please visit the Husky Card Services Husky Card information page.
- To request access, the Building Access Coordinator (BAC) submits an online request.
- The BAC will be notified when access has been added to the individual’s Husky Card.
- For existing personnel, access may take up to 24 hours to activate.
- For new personnel, requests may be submitted 24 hours after they receive their Husky Card.
- For individuals that are not eligible for a Husky Card, the Building Access Coordinator (BAC) submits an online request for a HS Access Badge (combined access card and photo ID).
- If a photograph is attached to the online request, the BAC will be notified when the badge is ready for pick-up in Room T283 (badges are not mailed).
- After the BAC submits the request, the individual may also send a passport-style photo with a blank background to HS Building Management. Selfies are acceptable.
- Badges are valid for one year from date of issue. If access is needed beyond one year, the department must purchase a new badge for the individual.
It is not necessary to notify HS Building Management when faculty, staff or students leave the UW. The Workday or SDB feed will automatically deactivate their Husky Card.
If a cardholder’s status changes, the BAC should complete an online change request.
Shared access badges are for use by contractors, vendors, and delivery personnel for interior CAAMS access.
- To request a shared access badge, the Building Access Coordinator will need to submit an online request to HS Building Management
- Badges are active for one year from date of issue
- Shared badges will be assigned to the company or department, not to individuals
- Under very limited circumstances, badges with exterior access may be issued to service companies. Typically, these will be issued to vendors, such as UPS, Airgas or Praxair, that serve large portions of all of the Health Sciences buildings. Issuance of badges with exterior access is solely at the discretion of HS Building Management.
