Communication and Support

The Communication and Support division provides technology support services for students, faculty, and staff on the IUB and IUPUI campuses. The support is broad, deep, and structured to assist all IU affiliates with the use of technology in their work, studies, and research. Support is available via individual assistance, in the online IU Knowledge Base, in Student Technology Centers and campus housing, and to departmental and IT staff on the campuses.

The division also provides telephone operator services, negotiates major software and hardware contracts, and manages and distributes enterprise software.
