Technology

In 2003, Charleston Southern University became one of the largest wireless computer networks in South Carolina and the first institution of higher learning in the state to offer wireless Internet access to all campus buildings. This allows students to go wireless with their network cards, and enjoy free high-speed Internet access for research and downloads in all 22 buildings on the campus. The progress has also allowed faculty the ability to log on to the network and even teach wireless. In addition, CSU's School of Business uses state-of-the-art technology and industry standard software in the classroom. Faculty communicate with students through Blackboard, a computer-based course management and communications system.

In 2004, the CSU School of Business joined the SAP University Alliance Program. Through this program, CSU has been able to become a leader in higher education by partnering with a dynamic leader in the business community. CSU now has access to SAP's leading business solutions and Enterprise-wide Resource Planning (ERP) computer-based information systems. The University Alliance Program allows CSU to use SAP's software as an instructional tool to help develop technically sophisticated graduates. The SAP University Alliance Program provides a unique opportunity for students to gain real-world experience, and because corporate recruiters appreciate the value of SAP experience, graduates who receive certification from the University Program increase their opportunities to find rewarding employment. The excitement surrounding the SAP initiative has been magnified by the understanding that no other college or university in the state of South Carolina is currently a member of the SAP University Alliance.
