Did You Know?

The College of Engineering provides all faculty, staff, GRA/GTA/GAAs, and PhD students with a profile that is mirrored across our websites including the main College website.

Upcoming Work

  • Monday, March 14 – Wednesday, March 16 - ETS will be replacing network switches throughout Knowlton Hall that will result in intermittent and short outages.  While you are unlikely to experience, as many faculty/staff areas will be switched over in the evening, any connection issues should last no longer than 20 minutes.  OSUwireless will also be available throughout the planned worked. 

 

  • Monday, March 14 from 11:30 P.M. – 1:30 A.M. – ETS will be working with OTDI to improve network performance and our access to the internet.
