Chief Information or Technology Officer
Hailed as a top national higher education technology executive, Edmund Clark is the chief information officer at the California State University Office of the Chancellor. Leveraging this record of success, he designs systemwide digital transformations and comprehensive strategic IT plans across 22 universities. This expertise extends to spearheading the largest artificial intelligence implementation in United States higher education through the creation of the AI Commons Hub. Clark sustains this momentum by capitalizing on 25 years of technology sector experience to orchestrate the nation’s largest cloud migration of PeopleSoft infrastructure supporting over 500,000 users. This leadership trajectory supports his prominent institutional governance commitments, which include maintaining active advisory board seats with the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California and the SoCalCIO Advisory Board. He directs multi-faceted procurement, human resources and technology initiatives over his two-and-a-half-year tenure. Clark secured $20 million in annual shared services savings for strategic reinvestment into student equity programs.
