IT Services

  • The Service Catalog is a comprehensive list of IT services provided by OIT and other groups on campus. The Technical Systems category may especially be of interest.
  • Each service listing links to documentation, support, and the request mechanism for the service.
  • Services include everything from password resets to web development to academic technology consultations - even if you think you know all the services available on campus, we suggest taking a look now and then to see what's new.

Equipment Purchasing

Repair / Part Ordering

  • Repair information and rates are available on the repairs page.
  • Select parts are available for those who wish to perform their own service and maintenance on their departmental equipment, including printer maintenance kits, memory chips, and other user installable parts. No warranty parts are available, and training is not provided for installation of purchased parts. (at 115 Waterman St., Room 101)
