Service Description

IR&C is responsible for University policy in the areas of information technology, electronic information security, data and records management, electronic communications, and telecommunications. Policies under the department's purview are the Information Systems policy series and the Records Management Program policy series in the Business and Finance Bulletins, as well as the presidential Electronic Communications Policy. The associate vice president of IR&C serves as the UCOP agent under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), and UCOP guidelines for complying with the DMCA are housed on the IR&C Web site.

IR&C assists University personnel, often in close coordination with the Office of General Counsel, in interpreting the above-referenced policies for application in specific situations at the campuses or at UCOP. IR&C takes a leadership role in shaping the University agenda for development of new IT related policies and for updating existing policies. IR&C also participates in Universitywide groups that are concerned with IT policy issues. These include the UC Information Technology Policy and Security Officers, the Electronic Communications Coordinators, the DMCA Agents, and the Information Technology Leadership Council.
