Overview

The CALS Office of Information Technology (CALS IT) provides information technology services to the college. Our services support the administrative, instructional, research, and outreach computing needs of the college and bridge services offered at the department level and the campus level through the Division of Information Technology (DoIT) and other third-party IT providers.

CALS IT provides computing services to the entire college and, in some areas, to other UW-Madison units. These primarily are in support of instructional, research, administrative, and outreach missions. CALS IT works in conjunction with local/departmental IT support. Services provided include Application Development, Cybersecurity, Desktop Support, Infrastructure and Networking, Learning Technologies, Research and Data Computing, and Web Services.
