Computing and Instructional Technology

The Office of Computing and Instructional Technology (OCIT) provides computing and instructional technology support to faculty members, researchers, administrators and students. The OCIT team, with their extensive experience and expertise, provisions, manages, and supports all OCIT managed desktops, laptops, as well as printing and unified communication services. They provide guidance and recommendations for technology solutions, provide assistance with institutional IT-related purchases, deploy equipment and technology, and ensure adherence to data security and privacy regulations. 

Additionally, the members of the office manage and provide a wide-range of IT-related resources and tools (e.g., CourseWorks-Canvas, Qualtrics, Turnitin, Columbia Pro Zoom Account, STATA SE, Box, etc.) essential for staff and students alike. Beyond the management of computing, data and communication services, the OCIT team maintains and supports all audio visual infrastructure for classrooms, conference rooms, specialized rooms, shared computers and network printers.
