TSC Work Requests

The TSC’s online work request system enables us to track and assign projects to team members and collect valuable workload data for future planning. Work requests must be associated with a faculty or staff member in CEPS. Upon completion of our online Work Request Form, you will receive confirmation that it has been submitted, and a team member will usually follow up with you within 48 hours. If you need more immediate assistance, please contact Jesse Ambrose, Interim TSC Director: Jesse.Ambrose@unh.edu.
