Office 365 employee email investigation project recommendation

A message from Bruce Campbell, chief information officer (CIO)

Email services for University employees are currently hosted on an on-premises Microsoft Exchange environment, while email services for undergraduate students are hosted on the cloud-based Microsoft Office 365 environment.

Office 365 employee email investigation

As announced last June, and with the support of University Committee on Information Systems and Technology (UCIST) and the Campus Technology Services Committee (CTSC), Information Systems & Technology (IST) has explored the possibility of moving University employee email to Office 365. This included an in-depth analysis of this potential migration, a successful Information Risk Assessment, consultations with faculty and staff, and consultations with other Canadian universities.
