History

Information Technology at Oakland University began in the early 1970s with the development of campus-wide computer systems available to faculty, staff, and students. Since that time, OU has made a commitment to continuing the development of reliable and updated IT programs and resources on campus through a variety of initiatives that have taken place over the years.
