goCI is now available

by in , , , , 1

Along with today's wireless upgrade announcement, we also pleased to release v2.0 of the goCI app for iOS, Android and other mobile devices.

goCI v2.0 was completely re-built from the ground-up using the Modo Labs Kurogo platform and provides some important new updates, including:

  • improved map and wayfinding capabilities; 
  • a more flexible, tablet-friendly interface; and 
  • better support for Windows phones and other mobile web devices, via m.csuci.edu 
The last change is probably the biggest: now you can access most of the features of the goCI native app using the web browser on your smartphone. Just visit the goCI mobile site, located at m.csuci.edu.
We are still working on some big updates for goCI v2.1, (including mobile course registration and payment), which will continue throughout the summer. Our implementation team is working with our partner Modo Labs to resolve some technical limitations relating to how CI Records (our student records system) authenticates & communicates with goCI.

Please contact Peter Mosinskis, Director of IT Strategy, at peter.mosinskis@csuci.edu with any questions or comments about goCI v2.0, and thanks for your ongoing support in making CI a more mobile-friendly campus.

Improved wireless coverage outside of Broome Library

by in , , , , 15

During our fall 2014 Tech Fair, we received feedback from many students about the quality of wireless access in the open areas around Broome Library.

We're pleased to announce that in collaboration with Facilities Services and our strategic partner Pinnacle, we've dramatically improved the wireless coverage in the Central Mall and Broome Library plaza.

So enjoy CI's great warm spring weather and study outside! Feel free to contact the T&C Help Desk at helpdesk@csuci.edu or call 805-437-8552 to report any problems.
