Computing Labs

This is a picture of engineering students working on desktop computers in computer lab located in ERC 617-1

The Office of College Computing manages a wide variety of instructional computing facilities that are available to all College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) students. College Computing labs have a complement of about 400 PC workstations. All workstations are networked to the College Computing lab network. A portion of these are available to CEAS students 24 hours a day. The lab provides access to software, data, Internet and computing systems on UCNET (the university's backbone network).

To protect students and to prevent theft of computer equipment, all labs with 24-hour access have video cameras which record 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
