What's New & Changing @ NUIT?

Northwestern University-Qatar IT Director Named

Congratulations to David Carr, Director of Telecommunications & Network Services, as he begins his new role as Director of Information Technology/CIO for Northwestern University in Doha, Qatar.  NUIT will use David’s talents in the deployment of a technology infrastructure that will support faculty, staff, and students at the newest branch campus. 

For more information about David’s new position, check out the Director of Information Technology for Northwestern University-Qatar Named What’s New and Changing article.

Research & Academic Technologies

Academic Technologies is now named Research & Academic Technologies (R&AT).  The name change is a natural transition as Academic Technologies currently provides services for research faculty that retains Northwestern’s competitive edge over peer institutions for research grants. Under the direction of Robert Taylor, the current Director of Academic Technologies, the department will continue to work closely with faculty on research grants and proposals that depend on advanced networks.
