The college's IT staff have worked with us to develop an on-line tool for faculty who are applying for the use of restricted data sets.
This tool will be used by our faculty when they apply to obtain a set of data, such as from a government agency, that carries with it important restrictions, such as who can access the data, in what form it is made available to us (CDs, online, etc.), and, when the data access agreement expires, how the original dataset is returned or destroyed.
College faculty must complete a simple on-line form when applying to use such data. This system will also help alert us when the data use agreement requires a university signature.
The on-line system is at http://www.chass.ncsu.edu/
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this system. Day to day management of this system will be Joyce Christian's responsibility.
