Guidelines for Using Computer Labs
Information Technology Services maintains the equipment in the classrooms across campus. The classrooms are technology rich with the tools to support students and faculty in the learning environment.
User Account Lifecycle for NetIDs
Students and employees receive both a campus user account (NetID) and a corresponding UI Enterprise Account (NetID). User’s NetID allows access to campus services such as email, learning management system, and cloud services. It also allows access to Enterprise services such as Self-Service for student and employees, academic history, financial services like W2s, and many other services.
ITS Policies
ITS policies are reviewed/updated on an annual basis each August.
Phishing Training
Phishing is when suspicious links are embedded in email messages, texts, or websites that might look legitimate at first glance. Those behind the attacks hope you will take the bait and click so they can try illegal tactics to steal your information.
Data Migration Policy
On University owned computers
In some instances, such as certain virus infections, the only software repair option available for your computer may be to reformat the hard drive. Reformatting the hard drive means completely erasing all files and data on your computer and performing a clean install of the operating system.
Desktop Refresh Program
Effective FY24, the Desktop Refresh Program will adopt a shared funding model that allows for improved consistency and longevity of the program.
Summary
ITS will cover the cost of a Windows desktop or $1000 toward the cost of another machine in the program. Any additional accessories/upgrades (docking station for laptops, second monitor, printer, additional RAM, etc) will be the responsibility of the unit.
