The origins of Estate Management and Building Service (EMBS) can be traced back to 1923 when the Estate Management Branch of the School of Agriculture was set up, combining the teaching of estate management with the practical management of the University and College estates. In 1961, it was agreed that there should be a complete separation of the professional and building function from teaching and research: the Estate Management Advisory Service (EMAS) was established under the control of the Financial Board, and the Department of Land Economy was set up to teach the new Tripos. EMAS changed its name to EMBS in 1973 and became one of the Divisions of the Unified Administrative Service in 2001.
EMBS 1 transferred by the EMBS Registry to the University Archives on 7 July 2003 and 20 May 2004; EMBS 2 during the 1990s; EMBS 3/1 from the University Library Map Room on 3 May 2007.
