| UEC DIRECTS ITS ACTIVITY TOWARD E-CAMPUS Since the infancy of telecommunication technology, the University of Electro-Communications (UEC) has produced a large number of professionals in this field. This tradition continues today. Now that it is an era of “ highly information oriented society” and “IT (Information Technology)”, it has become a characteristic of the university that many of its students are showing strong interest in state-of-the-art research in IT related areas. This movement has motivated a group of faculty and staff at UEC to implement the concept of e-campus, under which a campus- wide network system not only provides a seamless environment of IT services to all members of the university, but can also serve as a research and education resource. For example, researchers may utilize the network in exploring the potential benefits of IT in daily life, while the network can help students to quickly familiarize themselves with the IT environment. Efforts to upgrade the campus-wide information network system, including the expansion of wireless LAN hubs, are being carried out at an accelerating pace. As of June 2003, wireless LAN hubs have been installed in eight locations on campus. As an example of services available with this system, bulletins from the university, such as the timetable of classes and announcements of cancelled lectures, can be accessed easily with personal computers. When the concept of e-campus is fully implemented, some people may even think of the name UEC as standing for University of e-Campus. We look forward to further development and implementation of this concept. |
