There are many formal and ad-hoc information technology committees and workgroups at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. 

The work of these groups is critical to the success of information technology at UMB. They have fostered communication and collaboration across UMB organizations, which have led to the development of common solutions, successful implementations, and the effective adoption of policies, procedures, and information technologies. By sharing expertise, knowledge, and resources, mutual benefits and success with information technology have been achieved within, and across, organizational boundaries.

The following are the active planning and advisory committees, and workgroups, at UMB:

In addition to these groups, CITS staff work daily with faculty, staff, administrators, and students from every UMB school and department, as well as with employees at UMMC and FPI, in supporting email delivery, anti-SPAM and anti-virus protection, networking and communications, server hardware and database support, administrative and eTeaching and eLearning systems, etc.
