Overview

Working for the Associate Dean of Distance Learning and Computing we research, test, deploy and support information systems necessary for the mission of the College of Engineering. We work closely with faculty, staff, students and the University community to foster and develop our information system infrastructure and identify key technologies that will be used in the educational environment of the future. We work with various vendors to test and deploy a wide range of technologies used by the College of Engineering. Key functions of this office include support of information systems, development of our teaching and learning systems and examining future trends for technology in higher education.
