Buckinghamshire New University has applied for planning permission to remove 20 existing rooflights and replace them with a single new triple glazed rooflight.
It also wants to replace single glazed windows and doors with double glazed ones and rip out non-insulated external roller shutters for insulated ones.
Its plans also include the removal of existing roof covering and associated waterproofing, insulation, outlets, hoppers and downpipes, all to be replaced.
The proposals affect an existing building that is part of the main body of the university’s High Wycombe campus.
The planning statement reads: “The proposed works are to address the current poor condition and thermal efficiency of the roof and the façade.”
