Welcome to the SCAD/DCS Program
The SCAD/DCS (Support for Computing in Academic Departments/Department Computing Support) program is the frontline support and maintenance for desktop hardware and software systems at Princeton University. It has been uniquely structured allowing the benefits of centralization and the freedom of decentralization.
News
On Tuesday, July 25, 2023, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) will retire the Media Central Live TigerTV channels except for the University's channel 7 and 8.
As part of a broader IT Strategic Plan, the University will be taking purposeful steps to protect our campus IT infrastructure from ransomware and other destructive cybersecurity attacks.
The cybersecurity toolkit will be continually updated as we work together toward ensuring faculty and staff compliance with the new requirements for managed devices.
