She has collaborated with the VP Research on the creation and development of the multi-institutional Massachusetts High Performance Computing Center, and with the Provost’s Office on the BU Digitial Learning Initiative.

Prior to joining BU, Tracy led the Department of Information Technology Services at the University of San Francisco (2002-2009) and served as president of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities’ Conference on IT Management (2007-2009).
