Craig Stewart, Ph.D.
Associate Dean, Research Technologies

Craig Stewart leads the Research Technologies division of University Information Technology Services (UITS), which serves the research and scholarship missions of Indiana University. Stewart's division seeks to enhance the quality and quantity of IU research by providing the best possible computation, storage, and visualization facilities and support for IU researchers. The division pioneers the frontiers of advanced computing as a research and development endeavor, and supports research and development through purposeful university/government/industry partnerships and extramural grants. Stewart has a long and accomplished career in IT at Indiana University, with extensive experience in leading and managing services to support researchers at IU, including positions as Director, Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing, and Director, Research and Academic Computing. More recently, Stewart was appointed Director, Indiana Genomics Initiative Information Technology Core, and Special Assistant for the Life Sciences, IU Office of the Vice President for Research, recognizing his leadership in developing high performance computing resources to support life sciences research, a strategic initiative of Indiana University. Stewart is an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Medical Genetics at IU, and has served as a Visiting Faculty Member in Computer Science, University of Stuttgart, in Germany. He has a Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Indiana University and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics and Biology from Wittenburg University.
