About the Michigan IT Symposium

The annual Michigan IT Symposium provides sessions to create connections between community members, showcase the innovation occurring across our four U-M campuses, and dig deeper into the technology and solutions involved. The event is composed of multiple types of interactions, including plenary and breakout events, and poster sessions. It is open to all University of Michigan IT and technology professionals and advocates.

The Michigan IT Symposium is sponsored by the office of the VPIT-CIO. The symposium is one of several activities organized by the Michigan IT Steering Committee to build community and encourage collaboration among U-M’s 2,700 IT professionals. The 2022 Michigan IT Symposium will be the university’s ninth event of this kind. See past events.
