The University Information Technology Council (UITC) is a broadly representative body including faculty, staff, and students from the University of South Carolina System. The UITC will provide advice and counsel regarding University information technology strategies to the Office of Information Technology (OIT), and through OIT to the Office of the Provost and the Office of the President. Among the areas of UITC deliberation are:

• prioritization of projects and resource allocations;
• discussion, formulation, and review of strategic plans;
• performance benchmarks and measures;
• budget reviews;
• identification of opportunities for IT growth and focus
• communication strategies to inform and engage the community; and
  discussion, formulation, and review of IT policies.

The most important principal guiding UITC activities is to ensure that IT activities and initiatives are closely aligned with the highest academic and business priorities of the University.
