Audiovisual
CIT’s audiovisual (AV) department provides the audiovisual resources required to support the academic mission of the college. The department’s role on campus takes many forms, from videoconferencing to event support to setting up and supporting our various technologically enhanced classrooms. Offices are on the fourth floor of Mudd Center.
AV staff research, procure, and install the equipment necessary to create and maintain the technology-enhanced classrooms on campus. These classrooms generally have a projector system and instructor station. Many use the latest technology—LED displays, high lumen projectors, and digital control panels.
AV staff will provide training on the use of specific smart classrooms. To request a training session, visit services.oberlin.edu.
