Founded in 2018, the Information Technology Student Advisory Committee (ITSAC) provides a forum for undergraduate and graduate students to discuss current campus technology priorities and new IT initiatives. This committee is an essential channel for ensuring students have meaningful input and involvement in enhancing the IT experience at McMaster.
- Create a platform for students to advise on their technology needs, priorities, and concerns
- Establish a channel for communication between students and IT service providers
- Build relationships between the student organizations and IT units and departments on campus
- Assist with testing new products and/or review new services before they are announced to the campus community
- Share what they learn with their peer groups
The committee meets monthly during the Fall and Winter terms. At the end of each year, the ITSAC provides a report to Senior Management, outlining recommendations and feedback on the IT services at McMaster. The report is available on the AVP and CTO website, along with the ITSAC’s Terms of Reference.
