Welcome to our newest iteration of CADTech Helpdesk!

We hope you find a better, more user friendly and responsive experience as we work to solve your CAD computer- and lab-related issues.

CADTech Helpdesk ( helpdesk.cad.rit.edu ) vs. RSC ( help.rit.edu ) . . . what’s the difference?

This is probably the most confusing question when you first get to CAD!

The CADTech Helpdesk is your dedicated helpdesk for your CAD-managed equipment, software, labs, etc. If you got it from CADTech, you’ll want to use this address to get help. We also service the CAD-managed labs in Booth, Gannett, and in parts of MAGIC.

Our address is: helpdesk.cad.rit.edu


The RIT Service Center (RSC) is your one-stop shop for a host of OTHER RIT Services. This includes ITS (including issues with your email account or “institute-owned” classrooms), Accounting, Dining, Facilities Management, Human Resources, Parking, TImekeeping, etc.

Their address is: help.rit.edu


When in doubt, you can always file a ticket with CADTech and we’ll make sure that we get you the to the help you need!
