The annual computer equipment request process is the primary way for faculty and staff to obtain college computer equipment. There are some limitations on what can be requested through this process. For example, the college will not provide more than one office computer per person and will only provide shared laser printers.
Funding is available to replace computers approximately every seven years.
Individuals then have a month to research and prepare their equipment requests. We encourage everyone to think about the specific ways in which their current equipment doesn't meet their needs. CIS staff will consult with individuals to help them identify equipment needs. Department chairs collect and prioritize all the individual requests for their areas. These departmental prioritizations are extremely important, as they are the primary means for determining which requests will be fulfilled each year.
