Abstract
This paper discusses the current state of Academic Research Computing (ARC) at UNCW and the steps taken to enhance it as a service to UNCW research faculty. A review of national universities, including peer institutions, was completed to understand the research computing environment as a whole. Research faculty, ARC advisory committee members, and members of the Information Technology Systems Division were interviewed and asked to participate in surveys and questionnaires to gather information for a research needs assessment on UNCW’s campus. This information, in conjunction with the national review, shaped the actions taken to fulfill the faculty’s needs and to position ARC to better serve the university. These actions include creating a clear definition of the ARC program as well as building a business model, web site, web applications, and a marketing strategy. The paper concludes with a listing of future work to continue moving ARC forward.
