Format for Update of
Information Technology Plans
The University Academic Computing Advisory Committee (ACAC) requests
updates of annual school and departmental Information Technology Plans. A
technology plan should not exceed ten pages. The format for the Information
Technology Plan is as follows:
I. School or Department Mission Statement
II. Current Academic Computing Activities
A. Current Instructional Computing Activities
B. Current Research Computing Activities
C. Ways in which Requirements Are Being Satisfied
1. Current Computing Resources
2. Use of Academic Computing Resources
III. Future Academic Computing Activities
A. Future Instructional Computing Requirements
B. Future Research Computing Requirements
C. Ways in which These Requirements Will Be Satisfied
IV. Support Staff
In the annual technology planning cycle, Information Technology Plan
updates are requested in the spring, and submissions to the annual Academic
Computing Support Program (ACSP) are requested in the fall. An Information
Technology Plan is a prerequisite for submission of an ACSP proposal, and
is used as a basis for evaluation of proposals.
This year we are requesting a description of ways in which technology
support and maintenance needs are staffed in Section IV. In this section
describe any internal staff who provide such support, either formally or
informally, and the extent to which such needs are currently met through
support from staff housed within the Academic Computing Center.
Departments which desire assistance with the strategic planning process can
obtain assistance from the Information Technology Center. Contact:
Tim Sigmon, at 924-0615 (email: tms@virginia.edu) to request planning
assistance.
