Interim Chief Information Officer (CIO)
The UF Chief Information Officer is responsible for policy direction, strategic planning, coordination of information resources and management, and campus-wide IT leadership in support of the University's mission. The CIO facilitates use of IT as a fundamental academic and administrative infrastructure and as an enabling resource for students, faculty and staff.
Dr. Charles E. Frazier is Interim Chief Information Officer effective August 1, 2008. In his career at UF, Frazier has served on the faculty and in a number of administrative roles. This is the second time he has served in a lead role in IT. He was first appointed Vice Provost for Information Technology in 2001 after chairing a successful campus-wide review of UF Information Technology. The committee report from that review became the blue print for IT governance and development over the next several years.
Prior to his initial IT assignment in 2001, Frazier served in a number of other administrative roles including Vice Provost and Senior Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, Associate Dean for Administrative Affairs in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and Director of the Institute for Studies in Criminology and Law. Most recently, Dr. Frazier was a professor on the faculty of the Department of Criminology, Law and Society and now is emeritus in that department. As a faculty member, Frazier's research and teaching focused on juvenile justice, reform law and policy effectiveness, and professional crime. Before returning to this current administrative role, Frazier was Principal Investigator and Project Director on a federal research grant funded to conduct a randomized field-experiment testing the effectiveness of community-based and institutional juvenile offender treatment approaches.
