Statements of Fact:

Students of Ferris State University will be the best ambassadors to promote the value and strength of Ferris State University throughout their personal and professional career.

IT will not be a barrier to business goals; however, IT cannot achieve success without support from the business.

The Information Technology department will align our efforts with the principles, goals, and strategies of the Ferris State University Plan for Information Technology and the University Strategic Plan. IT will translate strategies into action plans, resulting in the efficient and effective use of information technology resources.

IT will strive to add value to the services we provide guided by the concept “If our customers had a choice, would they choose us to deliver the requested service?”.
