The University of Arkansas is starting a nationwide search to fill the position of associate vice chancellor for information technology/chief information officer (CIO) after the recent appointment of former CIO Chris McCoy as the vice chancellor for finance and administration. 

The successful CIO candidate will play a principal role in providing strategic vision and leadership for all facets of university IT and overall operational management of the IT Services department.
