A message from Gregory Smith, Chief Information Officer
IST’s 2025 Annual Report captures highlights of the important IT projects and initiatives IST staff have completed for the University community over the past year.
IST continues to partner with units across campus to connect both foundational and emerging technologies to our University strategy, building ever stronger our institutional digital capacity to support teaching, learning, research, and efficient administration. Through these ongoing collaborations, our community has benefited from successful investments in University enterprise system enhancements; research data security and expanded secure on-premises storage of data; exploration, implementation, and responsible use of AI-assisted systems and services; and spaces for investigating and piloting educational technologies within our diverse learning environments.
Through the many consultations that were critical inputs into our IT Strategy exercise, and the continuing work in the IT Functional Review, I look forward to continuing to work with our community in 2026 to deliver IT services in an efficient manner to further the University's mission.
