Software Services

Software is a major asset of the University of Cincinnati. Like most peer institutions in the country and around the world, UC spends millions of dollars annually on software licensing purchases. And we continually make additions to the university’s software resources. Whereas academic and administrative departments at the university may add to the software library with specific purchases to meet their own unique requirements, many of the software licensing agreements into which UCIT enters are intended to benefit every registered student and every staff and faculty member. Three obvious examples are our learning management system (Blackboard), the UConnect and Exchange E-mail systems, and our network system software.

Hardware Services

UCIT Desktop Services is a function within the Systems and Operations organization, meaning that UCIT only provides desktop support to our own staff.
