About the Award

Recognizing the ongoing and mission-critical importance of the campus network infrastructure and architecture, EDUCAUSE offered this Award for Excellence in Networking: Innovation in Network Technology, Services, and Management. The award honored strategic, innovative networking programs or practices that improved the quality of campus network services -- and thus the campus environment -- through new or enhanced network architectures, infrastructure, integration, management, and/or operational practices. Projects did not need to be institutional in scale to be considered. The selection committee looked for innovative practices that demonstrated creativity, efficiency, or effectiveness in handling common challenges and that could serve as models for other institutions.

Winners of this award were selected by the EDUCAUSE Network Award Committee, with strategic oversight from the EDUCAUSE Recognition Committee.

This award program was sponsored by Cisco Systems, Inc., An EDUCAUSE Platinum Partner.
