AITS Strategic Plan

The AITS Strategic Plan outlines the information technology strategies and initiatives and is designed to be a three-year IT plan that evolves with collaborative input alongside other strategic plans throughout the University of Illinois System.

Design Standards

AITS supports numerous digital tools that aid in the operation of the entire University of Illinois System. These web and mobile applications are used by a diverse userbase made up of students, faculty, staff and others to assist them in the various tasks needed to keep the university running smoothly. A single individual will likely use multiple applications during their time at the university, and since each of these applications represent the university, it is imperative that they all offer a consistent and high-quality experience. Having a set of standards for our applications is a key part of achieving this goal. These standards cover three main areas: usability, accessibility, and visual design.
