This software is pre-installed on public computers around campus, instructor stations in classrooms, computer classrooms, and most science teaching labs. Changes are generally made between semesters. Faculty will receive an email soliciting requests mid each semester for the following semester, along with textbook and library orders . Please note, not all students have laptops so please request software accordingly.
Some locations have computers that can dual boot (choose at startup if you want to use macOS 13 or Windows 10), while others are only one or the other.
More information is available regarding the licensing of many of these programs, including their availability for installation on office and personal computers.
