The North Carolina State College Committee on Computer Center was established at North Carolina State College (later North Carolina State University), in or before 1959 to serve as an advisory group on policy matters relating to computing and the Computing Center for the campus. The committee has also been known as the Computing Center Advisory Committee; the University Advisory Committee for Computer Affairs; and the Computer Affairs Advisory Committee. As of 2012, the name is the North Carolina State University Information Technology Committee. This committee has been charged with facilitating the development of campuswide strategies that will continue to improve the university’s delivery of information technology (IT) services to the campus for administrative and academic purposes. The committee reviews current implementation of information technology, recommends appropriate universitywide computing standards to maintain the currency of IT on the campus, and serves as a primary communication liaison among North Carolina State colleges and central IT service providers. University academic departments and colleges are "free to choose" the computing hardware and software that best meets their needs within the approved baseline standards. The committee's recommendations are presented to the Provost and to the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business, and when appropriate, to the Chancellor for final approval and implementation.
