Engineering Computing Support provides computing assistance to faculty, staff, researchers and students of the Samueli School of Engineering. If you are from another academic school go here to find your school's computer support team.

UCI also has a separate, large central computing support organization called the UCI Office of Information Technology.  UCI uses a distributed computer support model, with many central services provided by OIT or offered as a paid service, and additional support for school-specific needs provided by the Engineering Computing Support team. You can contact OIT support at oit@uci.edu, or call them at 949-824-2222. Campus-wide service outages are reported at https://status.oit.uci.edu

Faculty & Researchers

Most Engineering faculty operate their own research computers, often with assistance or consultation with Engineering Computer Support. We can also help you interface with OIT. Contact us at helpdesk@eng.uci.edu.
