As in past years, our FY23 Budget proposal remains focused on meeting the diverse and evolving needs of the Yale community. There are good signs that the time we have spent over the last five years building our current foundation has transformed ITS into a more resilient and reliable unit that is more responsive to those evolving needs; and an ITS that is nimbler and more transparent.
In preparation for the end of the FY18-FY22 IT strategy, IT leaders have been busily recalibrating for the next five years. Through a combination of meetings with individuals across the University, a campus-wide survey, insights from the IT Leadership Council, and a retreat with IT Staff, strategic anchors and associated goals have emerged. The working FY23-FY27 IT strategy will support Yale’s evolving technology needs and the staff who deliver on those needs.
On Tuesday, July 19, at 9:00 a.m., Yale will transition to the new Graduate Student Funding (GSF) process using Banner, Workday, and a Data Mart for Graduate School payment transaction execution and Power BI for reporting.

Here are a few highlights from the newly designed processes:
