The CIO shares a message to students regarding technical challenges with registration services.

Georgia Tech has launched its new strategic plan, which presents a shared vision for the next decade, leading with motto, “Progress and Service for All”.

This rise in online activity also heightens the risk for scams and cyberattacks.

The past year has been unlike any year we have seen before, and while extremely challenging, I am grateful for the great things we have accomplished in 2020.

Since the start of the semester, Georgia Tech has experienced technical challenges to the campus network and important student services such as Buzzport, TouchNet, and Banner. While some issues have been isolated, others have been widespread.

Georgia Tech Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) Jimmy Lummis left the Office of Information Technology at the end of January to pursue another professional opportunity and commit more time to personal endeavors.

We thrive on diversity. That is one of the nine core values that makes Georgia Tech unique. It was one of the things that attracted me here last year and I believe it is the value that will be the source of our strength in the future.

The Office of Information Technology (OIT) continues to provide equipment support for students, faculty, researchers, and staff through its Technology Equipment Loan program.
