The Directorate for ICT Support is a central service unit that provides expert services and guidance on ICT to all academic and administrative units of the university.

Makerere University identified Information and Communication Technology (ICT) services and systems as critical and top priority enablers in achieving its Vision and Mission.

The University embarked on the implementation of these services and systems with the support of various development partners.

In recognition of the global scarcity of ICT expertise, and to rationalise and contain the escalating costs that would result from multiple hiring of such expertise, the Directorate for ICT Support, (DICTS), was set up as a central service unit that provides expert services and guidance to all academic and administrative units of the university.
