Effective use of technology in areas that include admissions, record keeping, billing, compliance, athletic administration, and more hold untold potential to transform higher education by introducing significant efficiencies and dramatic cost reductions in serving students. How the institution organizes itself will to a large extent depend on how the IT systems are established and maintained. The design, development, management, utilization, and evaluation of these IT systems will be necessary for the university to operate successfully. "IT Issues in Higher Education: Emerging Research and Opportunities" is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the integration and management of information technology in higher education with a focus on issues of security, data management, student access to information, and staff competency. This publication explores present-day educational environments as well as educators' methods of applying technology to student success and highlights topics that include personal devices and institutional culture. It is ideally designed for academic professionals, lecturers, students, professors, IT experts, instructional designers, curriculum developers, administrators, higher education faculty, researchers, and policymakers.
