Scope of Activities

The ITEC's scope of authority includes:

• Information Technologies, such as:
  • Computing (mainframes, servers, desktop computers, applications, etc.)
  • Communications (voice, video and data)
• Instructional Technology
• Information Services
• Information storage, back-up, archival and preservation
• Information Technology infrastructure

The ITEC is responsible for information technology policy at the University. The ITEC is also concerned with technology change as it affects instructional methods, research, outreach, and administrative processes.

The ITEC receives input directly from the ITEC Advisory Council (IAC). The ITEC also seeks input and counsel from various other sources such as the Council of Deans, Faculty Council and its committees, various other CSU committees (Associate and Assistant Deans, Campus Administrative Advisory Group, etc.), technology managers, and interested and qualified individuals. Normally, the ITEC approves information technology policy for the University. Where policy requires approval by the President and/or the Board of Governors of the CSU System, the ITEC will consider the policy, and forward a recommendation to the President for elevation to the Board.

Finally, the ITEC develops and maintains an information and instructional technology vision for CSU which is integrated with the university strategic planning and budgeting process.
