The Department of Information Technologies provides reliable access to many resources throughout the College for both academic support and administrative office applications.  A high-speed fiber-optic backbone is in place on all three campuses. High capacity leased lines connect the three campuses as well as Trinitas and Muhlenberg Regional Medical Centers.  This connectivity ensures a high level of availability of technology resources throughout the College.

The computer center, located at the Cranford Campus, is equipped with high speed AlphaServer technology to support the needs of students, faculty, and staff members.  Microsoft Windows NT Server has been chosen as the primary operating system due to its dominance in the academic and administrative application software industry.

Windows XP is available at the desktop in all 45 computing labs, offices, libraries, and academic learning centers.  Specialty applications include multimedia and Web development, Computer Aided Drafting/Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM), and desktop publishing using industry standard tools.

Each student is provided with a network e-mail account.  This allows the student to communicate with others, including his/her instructor, electronically.  Each network account comes with secure network disk space that is accessible from any networked PC throughout the College.  Access to Microsoft application products and over 100 networked laser printers throughout the College enable the student to use technology as an effective tool in his/her program of study.

Library applications include current CD ROM databases such as New York Times and Business and Health Reference.  The electronic card catalog is available from any networked desktop computer.

Utilizing an electronic system of problem tracking and resolution, the HelpDesk  staff is able to provide knowledgeable and timely assistance.
