The road to digital equity in research and academia isn't without its bumps. Unequal access to technology and inadequate digital literacy remain formidable hurdles.

Recognizing this, DoIT aims to deliver on its mission by progressing on three major initiatives: Enabling Innovation & Transformation, Fostering Inclusivity & Professional Growth and Partnering to Modernize & Protect.

IT Leadership hosted IT Staff and partners from East and West Campus to discuss how we can strengthen partnerships to continue to move SBU forward. 

We started this year with a successful migration of our on-premise PeopleSoft Student Information System to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) during the first week of January.  For reference, this successful migration greatly improves the University's ability to serve students by shifting the system from outdated and unsupported on-premise hardware to modern, supported, cloud-based scalable and redundant infrastructure.

The 2nd floor of Javits now has seating available for students. There are places for groups, individuals, and a privacy booth. Seating is available on a first-come/first-serve basis.  All students are welcome!
