Information Technology Unit (ITU)

Each year the ITU takes on a few very complex and sophisticated web projects for development. These are usually of the type that have enterprise-wide impact (e.g. on-line admissions, on-line credit card payments, on-line travel, on-line student evaluations of faculty). Often these web services link to the student database or the employee database and therefore need to be approved by HumanResources, the Registrar, or other responsible parties.

If your proposal seems to fit this description, you can obtain and submit an application to the Web Team. If the team agrees, it will forward the application to the appropriate ITU group for prioritization. Projects are done in priority order (rather than "first come, first served"). If your project proposal is not selected or the timing does not meet your needs, we can work with you to locate a suitable vendor.
