Division of Information and Technology
Welcome to the Office of USM's Chief Information Officer and the Division of Information and Technology. The
Office and Division was established out of the work surrounding Transforming
USM: 2004–09. The Division consolidates all Information and Technology positions and services under a single management
structure to work as a business partner with the other USM Divisions and Departments to accomplish their missions. The
collaboration is enhanced by focusing on the following goals:
- the establishment of formal IT processes and standards throughout USM;
- establish formal backup and cross-training assignments;
- balance human and technology resources to accomplish essential tasks;
- provide IT governance and priorities that would weigh organizational and departmental needs;
- and establish a standard service model for USM Information and Technology.
These goals and the USM Plan (2001) guide our efforts in
shaping USM's Information and Technology services to meet the maturation and growth of the University's reliance upon
technology and information.
On this site, you will also find links to the five departments of the division, information about important IT
related policies, the division's organizational structure and Mission
Statement.
