Our Facility

The Information Technology Center opened in January of 2002 and is a state-of-the-art technology facility assisting advanced learning. The Center is divided into two wings, with classrooms and administrative offices in the Fuller wing while our computer labs are located in the IT wing. We have one dedicated PC lab, one Mac lab, and a larger hybrid lab with both Macs and PCs. Our labs support advanced multimedia production, including web design, video production, and audio engineering. Our labs are also used for word processing, image production, group collaboration, and assist in the printing needs of the campus.

The sub-level of the IT Center serves as the Help Desk and IT Support Hub, where our trained specialists support the technology needs of the Assumption community. Performing routine maintenance, installing new hardware, and providing remote technology service, the Support Hub for the IT Department offers thorough reassurance in addressing any technological issue.
