Academic Technologies

Academic Technologies is the central IT group that supports instructional websites. If you need a website for a Cornell course, please contact Academic Technologies by email: atc_support@cornell.edu.

For more information about this service, please see the following:

  • IT@Cornell: Academic Technologies
  • Academic Website (Static) Articles

Here are a few examples of sites already using AT hosting (note that Engineering Project Teams receive course credit, so they are supported by this platform):

  • https://courses.cit.cornell.edu/info2040_2014fa/
  • https://ewh.engineering.cornell.edu/
  • http://baja.mae.cornell.edu/

WordPress

WordPress hosting is offered through a separate service called CampusPress. WordPress makes it easy and intuitive to update your website, so it is recommended for users who don’t want to code HTML or PHP directly. For more information, see the WordPress service site.

This is a free service for anyone associated with Engineering, CIS, or Cornell Tech.

Here are some examples of faculty, research, and administrative websites using WordPress:

  • https://www.csl.cornell.edu/
  • http://monticone.ece.cornell.edu/
  • http://security.tech.cornell.edu/

Department Web Servers

The below units offer their own dept-specific web servers.

  • Computer Science
  • Information Science
  • Statistics and Data Science
  • Electrical and Computer Engineering

Shibboleth has replaced CUWebAuth

CUWebAuth is now deprecated.  New web servers are using Shibboleth for netid authentication. This will require some changes to how your website is configured. For more information about converting CUWebAuth to Shibboleth visit: Converting CUWebAuth to Shibboleth(Apache)

Custom Hosting

If you have highly specialized needs, you can request a LAMP stack as your personal web server.  This option requires additional fees that can be expensive for large websites. The benefit is that you get your own server and customize it to exactly meet your needs.
