Overview:
CAS provides IT support for students, faculty, staff, departments and programs in order to further the teaching and research mission of the University. CAS IT staff consists of Griz Tech, Spectral Fusion Designs, as well as several IT Managers dedicated to individual departments. The services provided by CAS IT are intended to complement the support from Central IT.
For projects that require services beyond the standard level of support or for non-CAS projects, we have provided the following guide to pricing.
Grant Writers:
When writing a grant for a new project, please keep in mind the IT costs related to your project. Some examples of these costs are...
- The support needed for support and backup of data related to your project
- The support needed to start new services such as software or hardware
- Costs associated with the development of databases, web applications, or general overhead costs on making that data available.
Traditionally, estimates for web or database projects are difficult to obtain since their requirements could vary greatly between projects. When seeking funding, please consider this and add sufficient buffer room for such contingencies.
