Managed by the House Style Office, the names list was compiled by the directors of the UM faculties, service centres, University Office and UM Holding. It also shows the official Dutch and English spellings of all names included.

When setting up new university units, you are obliged to report this to your faculty and service centre house style coordinator. After receiving authorisation from the responsible director/dean, the House Style Office will then include the new unit in the names list.

Those who have significant objections to the quadrant division and/or spelling of their unit should file their objection with the relevant director for approval by UM's Executive Board/Management Team and dean. Any units missing from the names list should inform their director.
