The IT Purchasing Office does not accept personal use technology purchase requests. Information Technology does provide information on discounted computers available for direct purchase from the manufacturer.
Information Technology coordinates the purchasing of computers, printers, Info Tech-related accessories, and software for UWSP business use. All technology purchases at UWSP are reviewed to ensure adherence to all conditions related to State of Wisconsin contracts.
