IT Council

Vision Statement

The Information Technology Council (ITC) of the University of Michigan envisions a future for the University in which:

  • Members of the community have the freedom to choose from an array of tools and devices that are supported by a common infrastructure.
  • Strive to provide ubiquitous access to resources, learning experiences, and colleagues at the University and beyond to meet the rising expectations of access to everything from anywhere.
  • Collaboration—supporting knowledge sharing, education, and research—is seamless and independent of time, location, unit, level, or institution.
  • Dan Atkins

  • Provide education, community support and resources to allow individuals to use technology to do amazing things.

Charge
