School of Medicine IT

The Basics

The School of Medicine’s web system is managed and maintained by the Information Technology web team. We utilize WordPress to offer a School of Medicine (SOM) branded website platform for SOM departments, centers, programs, and labs. WordPress is a popular and dynamic open-source software platform widely used in higher education for web content management systems.

Please note that the SOM web team is not involved with, nor do they have access to, the Health Care web system. Any questions pertaining to a Health Care website or Find A Doc should be sent to webteam@unchealth.unc.edu.
