Organization
The department, part of the Human Resources Division,
is currently organized into three major sections:
- Computer Services
Database design, application development,
application maintenance, and consultation.
Systems hardware/software installation, systems generation,
systems tune-up, troubleshooting, consultation.
A major feature of the department is the formation of project
teams that are assigned to work full-time under the auspices of
major administrative divisions. Wherever feasible, these computer
support personnel (computer system analysts and programmers) are
actually housed with members of the user community. This has been
very instrumental in our rapid development of computer systems.
Currently there are four project teams:
- Business Services
- Human Resources
- Facilities/Transportation
