Techsplaining 101: Quantum computing and what it means at Miami

Let's learn a little more about quantum computing for this edition of our long-running technology explainer series.

Dive in to quantum with us!

Introducing: Tableau for the university!

There are big updates coming down the pike for data analytics and how we use business intelligence strategies to make decisions at the university. One such update is quick and easy: We will be moving forward with Tableau (and Snowflake) as the official data analytics platform at Miami! Be on the lookout for more information about data and how we use it at Miami in the new year.

Reminder: Check our IT Status dashboard

To view planned IT activities and the current status of major systems and services, please visit our dashboard at MiamiOH.edu/ITStatus. It’s especially important to check during holiday weeks, since IT Services tends to conduct more changes when there aren’t so many people on campus (because there is less potential for impact).

ICYMI: Happy Thanksgiving from us in IT Services!

We are grateful for the partnerships of folks across campus that make working at Miami joyful and fulfilling.

Love and honor!
