improving Campus Applications & Technology
iCAT is a set of 12 new and exciting projects that will be completed over the
next 18-24 months. These projects will eliminate some of our paper based
forms like timesheets, purchase requisitions and travel authorizations. We’ll be
addressing faculty needs for better reporting and scheduling systems. Most
exciting of all, we’ll be putting in a new portal for everyone. A single window to
campus systems.
