About OIT - Objectives
The overall objective of OIT is to provide a technological infrastructure of resources necessary to support NSC’s mission of quality teaching and service. Our vision is to create a computing support organization that is recognized for technical skills and an ability to partner with customers to create and deliver high-quality computing services appropriate to the mission of the campus. These services are delivered through a computing infrastructure that is comprehensive, up-to-date, responsive, reliable, available, and intuitive. Specific objectives include:
- Campus Network – To engineer, expand, improve, manage, and operate the campus computer network and connections to the Internet ensuring that all campus computers are connected to the network and functioning at an appropriate speed.
