Software

We install a user-customizable set of popular applications on Windows machines deployed to Faculty, Staff, and Grad Students. There is a huge set of applications on the instructional systems. There is also a large collection of Microsoft software available to all faculty and students via the MSDNAA program. MS Office is licensed for machines in labs and offices. Students may purchase MS-Office for personal machines at special pricing.

Since we do not install or support all the software that might be of interest to people, users are generally given local administrator privileges on Windows desktops and you may install other packages you like (provided you are legally entitled to do so!)
