About Research IT

The Research IT team's goal is to bridge gaps that may exist between researchers and the technology that enables research.


We are focused on connecting people with technology-based resources like training and access to high-throughput, cluster, and cloud computing, as well as data storage solutions; software development assistance, expert consulting in any variety of topics including statistics analysis, programming and software optimization, visualization and much more.


We are here to give advice, guidance, or hands-on support to researchers from all disciplines and skill levels. We will sit down and listen to researchers to understand their individual needs.
