Summary
This article features various USNH-supported software applications and how to use them.
Content
Enterprise Technology & Services and various academic departments have purchased several software packages for use by the entire campus or collaborate together on purchases of licenses. These applications are being used by faculty and students to enhance existing courses through the use of computer technology.
Many of these applications are available from central servers run by IT staff. The software can be used by any person on the campus whose computer meets the specifications for the particular application. In addition, you must have a properly configured campus network connection to your computer. Wired Ethernet connections on campus as well as the "eduroam" wireless network meet this requirement.
The "Open" network and off-campus access to the Internet are not sufficient to access and use most of these programs. For wireless, please switch to the "eduroam" network instead. If you are off-campus, you must connect via the USNH network VPN . Off-campus connections also require a suitably fast Internet connection such as DSL or cable modem. If you have questions about network connections, please contact the IT Help Desk at 603-862-4242.

Note for Macintosh Users: Although programs like SAS and Small Stata are only licensed by IT for the Windows platform, Macintosh users can use a virtual environment such as Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion, or VirtualBox to run Windows on their Macintosh systems or setup a dual-boot environment via BootCamp. A license for the Windows operating system is required, but under our current agreement with Microsoft users are covered to use Windows 10 Education in a virtual machine on a computer you or USNH owns.
