CIO Welcome Message

Dr. Charles E. Frazier

Interim CIO,
Charles Frazier

Information Technology is not only fundamental to everything we currently do in universities; it is a primary facilitator for the innovations that will shape our future. It is in part a common set of devices and services that can be and are taken for granted and, in part, a complex of ever evolving precision tools that enable and drive advances in research, creative work, undergraduate and graduate education, clinical practice, extension and outreach.

Our job in UF IT is to provide faculty, students and staff with the high quality IT infrastructure, applications and support services they need to do university and unit-level mission critical work. To be optimally effective, our work must align exactly with the strategic imperatives and the strategic plans of the University.

The 2009 Information Technology Action Plan is the current road map for moving forward with an integrated UF IT.

Sincerely,

Chuck Frazier, Interim CIO
