Overview of faculty technology services

The Instructional Technology team consists of four people dedicated to technology support for faculty.

Projects such as the video conferencing capabilities of Science 101, or the media systems in the dining commons and dorms have benefited from the knowledge of experts. Senior Media Specialist Steve Armstrong and Production Specialist Greg Prevost have helped to develop and implement projects such as these across campus, and are available to work with faculty on similar projects. Ensure the success of your next media installation by consulting with them on the project details.

Steve and Greg also provide support for campus media technology (sound and video) for campus events. Contact them through the HelpDesk at 8-2532 for support with your event or project.
