Director's Message
Tremendous development in information technology is changing the way of our day to day lives. Information technology is an essential part of our life. Information technology is an increasingly vital element of the learning, teaching, research, and business in higher education today. Information technology can increase professional development activities, enhance students, faculty and staff experience, simplify communication and collaboration, add positive effects on the instructional process, empower our daily lives, and inspire us to innovate.
In this sense, the role of CICT at EUSL is very important; CICT manages the IT infrastructure of the University and provides a range of IT-related facilities and services to the staff and the students such as the university Website, esn-mail, Internet, IT labs for all faculties, computer maintenance, university Wi-Fi, and intranet.
CICT endeavours to provide the best professional opportunities to our students and look forward to their bright future. We as a team resolve to take the Centre to heights of success and glory and prepare for the forthcoming challenges. With best wishes to all the students' success in serving the nation.
Finally, We at CICT appreciate the opportunity to serve all EUSL members, and we’re committed to providing them with excellent service, and all useful ideas and suggestions are always welcome.
