As faculty of the University of Memphis, you are eligible to request the Technology
Access Fees to make purchases.
The Tennessee Board of Regents guidelines for use of TAF funds are:

as new and improved high technology laboratories and classrooms, appropriate network
and software, computer and other equipment, and technological improvements that enhance
instruction.
The procedure for TAF requests is as follows:
- Electronic TAF Requests are submitted via this website.
- Requests are compiled and reviewed by Information Technology.
- Requests are sent to Deans who will approve or deny them.
- Faculty are notified via email regarding a request's approval.
