August 2: Tune in to a Free EDUCAUSE Live Web Seminar on Cyberinfrastructure's Significance on Campus

Created by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on July 26, 2007

ELIVE logo In March 2007, the National Science Foundation (NSF) issued its final report, Cyberinfrastructure Vision for 21st Century Discovery. Though focused on the NSF, the report is an excellent starting point for campus-level planning. More than a support infrastructure for high-end researchers, cyberinfrastructure (CI) is critical to the humanities and social sciences as well as undergraduate and lifelong learning. It is becoming increasingly clear that CIOs and campus technical leaders from across the spectrum must consider the rapid rate of change (and significant costs) of CI as part of their jobs. In this August 2 EDUCAUSE Live!, Cyberinfrastructure: A Campus Perspective on What It Is and Why You Should Care, Peter M. Siegel, Vice Provost for Information and Educational Technology and CIO at the University of California at Davis, will share some thoughts on the campus view of the impact of CI, how we gain support from key stakeholders (like the faculty), and how we move forward in this space.

Those unable to attend can visit the archives after the event or browse EDUCAUSE resources on Cyberinfrastructure.
