Building Access

Description

Access to Penn buildings is managed locally by each school, department, center, or building.

Postdoctoral trainees who need building, office, laboratory, or other space access should first contact their department administrator, business administrator, faculty mentor, or local building manager.

Entry into many Penn buildings requires an active PennCard with appropriate access permissions. Each school, department, or building has designated Penn employees who can approve access to specific doors, rooms, or locations.

To identify the appropriate contact for a building, postdoctoral trainees may review Penn’s Facilities Contacts page. Please note that this page may require PennKey login.


Postdoctoral trainees should also review related onboarding resources, including PennCard, PennKey, Workday@Penn, and Payroll & Onboard@Penn.
