IT New Computer/Replacement Plan: New Employees and Device Replacement
One of the goals of Information Technology is to provide adequate and up-to-date computing devices to support the mission of Salisbury University. To this effect, the IT department has developed a road map that will guide the provision of new computing devices for new employees and replacement of full time faculty and staff primary computers that are five (5) years old or older. Secondary devices are the responsibility of the department to replace. If you are looking for the list of devices IT supports for new faculty or replacements, please review this information:
New Computer Configurations - Windows OR New Computer Configurations - Macintosh
Faculty
Full-time: Newly hired full-time faculty may select either a Windows or Mac standard laptop device at the time they are hired. Full-time faculty may select either a Windows or Mac standard model laptop at time of replacement of their primary device.
- If a higher performance model is needed, IT will fund the amount equal to the standard model of that category. Additional funds for the price difference will need to be provided by your department. A purchase requisition is required to be sent to IT Procurement with the account code(s) for the difference in cost.
- Moving from a higher cost device to a lower cost device does not result in any credit. The financial allocation is based on the standard model of the device you choose.
Note: In addition to the laptop, the faculty member will receive the following in addition to the standard device at no extra cost: one 27" Monitor, a docking station, and a wireless keyboard and mouse. Faculty/Departments can choose to fund the additional cost of the Advanced computer option or additional monitors/peripherals.
Part-time: Newly hired part time faculty are not provided a new device. If the department does not have a device available for the employee to use, IT will provide a used computer for the employee. The department should request a computer by filling out a request from the Technology Support Center portal: https://support.salisbury.edu/plugins/servlet/desk/portal/1
