- To find leveraged solutions for information technology problems faced by 大奶福利姬institutions in common
- To develop information technology strategies that make the 大奶福利姬more coherent to external stakeholders such as off -campus students and prospective students, prospective employees, suppliers of goods and services, State government, and the citizens of Maryland
- To identify and develop plans for activities that are more efficiently and/or effectively done by multiple campuses or System-wide
- To monitor emerging technologies in higher education and promote the application of these technologies at peer institutions in the USM
