Corporate Information & Computing Services
Let me first congratulate you for taking admission @ MAEER’S College. Now you are a part of world class IT infrastructure known as MAEER‘S E- Campus. Information Technology plays a vital role in research, teaching and administration of the MAEER.
However, that role is to provide access to information and services, and the technology should not drive the way the institution operates.
An IT Strategy should guide the development of a well-found information environment in order to deliver convenient a ccess to information, improve communication, collaboration and learning and ensure a flexible, responsive and above all reliable system.
This should enable established research groups to function effectively, new initiatives to be taken in teaching and learning to be both efficient and of the highest quality.
Information Technology (IT) is vital to MAEER’S aim of teaching and research, essential for the administration of that aim. To look after these requirements, a separate department is active on campus called “Corporate Information and Computing Services, (CICS) which looks after in-house maintenance of all computer systems, printers, designing and implementation of new networks.
The network infrastructure underpins all IT services (including email, access to the web. research, teaching and administrative applications), telecommunications, library services and systems, Built on this is a large investment in desktop machines, printers and software.
Most staff and students use these facilities daily. As on today 1200 desktops and 250 printers are available on MAEER Campuses. All these desktops spread over various campuses are connected to a central server room through a fiber optic backbone. A dedicated 4 Mbps Lease Line/ISDN Line ensures 24 hours fast connectivity to the world.
