Higher education institutions must transform learning experiences, strengthen data security and optimize device and support strategies for faculty and staff, while driving enrolment and controlling cost. Unisys integrates cloud modernization, data analytics, AI-powered experiences, cybersecurity and virtual environments to enhance operational resilience and student outcomes, positioning institutions for long-term success.
What Unisys offers
Unisys offerings for campuses begin with institutional transformation: modernizing IT infrastructure and legacy systems securely with AWS, Google and Microsoft cloud expertise. Data integration and analytics turn data across resources, courses, enrolment and spending into real-time, actionable insight, while data governance and management classify and protect data to meet FERPA, GDPR and HIPAA requirements. AI-enabled student experiences, including a student companion powered by the Unisys Intelligence Accelerator, provide virtual teaching assistance, translation, learning and research support under a responsible AI approach. Cybersecurity protects digital and physical campus resources with data masking, continuous threat exposure management and data vaults, and virtual academic labs give students 24/7 access to specialized software from any device.
