IT services for researchers

Who we are

The Division of Information Technology Research Support Solutions team (ITRSS) provides investigators with in-person assistance to meet their research-related IT needs. We advocate for and prioritize the development of next-generation computing resources and work to strengthen the university's research data ecosystem. 

Part of the MizzouForward initiative, the ITRSS team plays an integral role in enhancing MU’s research and education missions. Traditionally, IT resources have focused on solving university business needs. Now our technologists are helping move the needle to ensure researchers can go further, faster.

How we do it

Our team prioritizes the development of the next generation of computing resources and is working to implement solutions to improve the research data ecosystem (storage, data management). This includes assisting researchers with getting the necessary tools and equipment when standard processes don’t fit. We help you build meaningful partnerships and advocate for the IT-related resources you need.
