When traveling overseas for University business, an international calling plan must be added to the University issued device to save international roaming charges. UNIT requires one week's notice to add international features  to a device. The approximate monthly cost of an international calling plan is $60.00 plus usage. An international calling plan provides the user with a discounted roaming rate voice and data, but it does not provide free international calling or data. Dean, VP approval or appointed representative is required in writing before an international plan will be added to a University owned device.

 
User is responsible for:
  • Battery replacement

  • Data loss due to battery misuse or failure

  • Data backup

  • Data loss due to user not synchronizing the mobile device with the desktop

 

What is the procedure for obtaining a mobile device at 棉花糖直播 University?

First you would need to gain approval from your manager or supervisor and then fill out a mobile request form. Your interest is then sent to the Mobile Device team, who will then assess your needs and determine which device is suitable for you. A helpdesk ticket is then created and a member of the Telecommunications group will order and activate your device. A member of the mobile device team will schedule an appointment with you to set up your new mobile device.

Is there anything I need to do beforehand with my old cell phone to prepare for the installation of my mobile device?

Make sure your old cell phone is on hand and operational when your smartphone installation is scheduled. This includes having a charged battery, and all the original accessories and documentation that came with it. Also, if you're going to use the SIM card from your old cell phone in your new smartphone, you must make sure you've copied or saved all your contacts to it.
