Determining Software Approval

Tags software

Not all software is approved campus-wide; most approvals are department-specific. To check if your department is approved for a particular software, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the software in the list and click View Details.

  2. Under Approved Departments, confirm that either your department or All (campus-wide approval) is listed.

  3. Check the expiration date:

    • If valid → approval stands.

    • If expired → the currently approved department must renew by completing a Technology Assessment form.

  4. If another department is listed but not yours:

    • Click Add your department, complete the Use Case form, and wait for approval.

  5. If no department is listed and “All” is not shown, email ITVM@utrgv.edu for assistance.

  6. If the software is not listed at all, your department must complete a Technology Assessment form and wait for approval.
