Relationship Managers
Academic and administrative departments are assigned a T&I relationship manager who is knowledgeable about their business needs and can assist with navigating T&I. Whether you’re faculty member with a unique project or a staff member with a routine request, your relationship manager can help.
Project Management
Are you or your department ready to start an approved project? Whether you’re implementing a tried and true solution or something completely new, we’ll manage your project from beginning to end and ensure a plan is in place for ongoing support.
Departmental Application Support
T&I helps departments with their academic and administrative applications, including helping assess needs and possible software solutions, integrating cloud/software-as-a-service solutions to Davidson’s IT environment, or providing systems administration for approved on-premises applications.
Data Feeds & Reports
We provide data feeds and reports via data.davidson.edu (login required, VPN required for off-campus access) Need to share data between two systems or generate a custom report periodically?
Research Computing Support
T&I provides support for high-performance computing (HPC) clusters, web instructional/research tools like JupyterHub, and other initiatives around computer, storage and file transfer.
We define a project as a unique, temporary effort involving human, financial and/or material resources that starts, stops or significantly changes an IT-supported service, system or solution. Projects create documentable value for one or more Davidson business units, follow a plan appropriate to their complexity and produce desired deliverables and outcomes.
Audiovisual (AV) Support
Classrooms
T&I supports classroom and conference room AV, including Hance Auditorium and the Mary D.B.T. Semans Auditorium during business hours, Monday - Friday from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m.
Event Spaces
Tech Services, which is part of the College Union (not T&I), supports AV for live events both during the day and after-hours in specific campus event spaces.
Tech Services manages support for audio and video presentations in Union conference rooms, Lilly Gallery, Wall Atrium, Red Ventures Room, The Duke Performance Hall and Tyler-Tallman, and some outdoor events requiring sound amplification.
