The Office of Academic Technologies provides IT support for research. Researchers whose research involves human subjects, 3rd party data or restricted use data sets need to register their research project and complete a Data Security Plan (DSP).  To get started. see:

• Research Data Registration

OAT staff can assist in setting up your computer for research including configuring it to comply with data use agreements and/or data security plans. Contact the IT consultant for your department.
