Technology on Campus
The Office of Information Technology is centrally located in the Bunnell Building on the Fairbanks campus to provide the highest quality of service relating to technology needs for UAF students, faculty and staff. The OIT Service Desk, with two walk-up locations at 231 Bunnell and 102 Butrovich, is your computing help desk and a gateway to many of the services OIT offers.
Internet Access, Computing Labs and Smart Classrooms
Wireless Internet is available in most public areas and in all buildings on the Fairbanks campus. The residence halls also have the ability to connect via wired access.
OIT operates and maintains two student computer labs in 404 Rasmuson and 110 Moore-Bartlett-Skarland. The newest addition in computing labs is the Nook, in Bunnell 319. The Nook is a collaborative commons space that offers various seating options with accessible power outlets, virtual computer stations, wired and wireless network access for student devices, mobile printing, and conference tables where students can share content on their devices with others on a large screen.
On the Fairbanks campus there are 75 smart rooms (classrooms, auditoriums and lab spaces), furnished with instructional technologies such as in-room computers, digital projectors, DVD playback devices, document cameras and digital monitors. Six of these smart classrooms are equipped to provide automated lecture capture/recording.
