Programming

IT’s Programming team provides technical services to the campus primarily in support of Banner modules and multiple add-on systems that need to interface with Banner. They assist departments in optimizing their data and generating reports. The programmers are available to analyze problems and/or desired changes to either the data in Banner or current business processes and the impact those changes can have on different areas. The Programming team strives to assist the campus in maintaining both our system and data integrity.
