College of Education
Policy on Computer Hardware Purchases for Faculty and Staff
Approved June 19, 2015
The College of Education will purchase a single computer hardware device (e.g., desktop, laptop, tablet) for faculty/staff. This device will be configured to meet the needs of the individual. Periodically, the College will replace this device.
A second device will be purchased by the College for a faculty or staff member only when the faculty or staff member
- is medically required to conduct College business at home; or
- has been charged with regular and ongoing College-related administrative tasks that require travel or work hours that include weekends or evenings.
Upon approval from the College of Education IT Director, faculty or staff members may use funds from start-up packages or funds obtained via grants or contracts to purchase additional computer hardware devices, in addition to the primary device purchased for them by the College of Education.
