Summary

This page describes the course software installation procedure for computer labs.  Every spring we recommend faculty and staff request software needed for the upcoming fall/spring semester to ensure the software is ready for usage.

Course Software Installations

The ET&S staff install and maintain all of the software for the public Computer labs and Classrooms, as well as various department-owned labs that we manage. In addition to actually installing requested programs, we also will consult with faculty members trying to select the best software for use in their courses. If you wish to discuss a planned purchase of software for use in a course, we can provide you with much expertise in selecting applications which will meet your teaching goals and our technological requirements. 

Faculty can request that software be installed by clicking the Request Support button on the right.

Please note that:

• Software requests should be placed at least 2 weeks in advance of needing the software. (3 weeks for non-academic groups.)
• Faculty are responsible for properly licensing the software and providing all necessary materials and information to ET&S
• Instructors should plan to test the software after it is installed and in advance of providing students access or assignments.
• There are fees for non-academic groups using the Labs or classrooms for both room use and software installation.
