About Center for Information Technologies and Networks

1. Division

Division of Network Information Infrastructure & Research

Network Infrastructure division provides high-speed network system which is essential to smooth educational activities and office works.

The facility also operates a "mobile LAN" network that wirelessly connects computers to each other, which can be used to connect computers brought by individuals.

Division of Education Information System & Research

We operate workshops on such topics as IT-related certification exams, how to use various types of software, and security measures.

In line with the trend toward the use of personal computers, a support desk has been set up in the CeMDS (Center for Mathematical and Data Sciences) to support the use of information infrastructures in learning and education.

Division of Network information & Service

Information Services division consolidates the management of accounts for faculty, staff, and students as "Unified-account," which is used for electric programs inside Mie University.

In addition, it holds several useful license agreements for software such as "Microsoft Office 365", antivirus software, and research software, which are available to faculty, staff, and students of Mie University.

Division of Administrative

The DX and Information team in the International and Information Department works in coordination with various research and service departments.
