Computers and Tablets

All computers and tablets should be procured centrally though ITS regardless of which account funds the equipment. We are able to connect Apple and Dell products to our network environment for printing, shared drive, antivirus protection, and Microsoft Office access.

If you are a new regular employee, a new full time faculty member, or if you have received notice that your computer is eligible for replacement (generally every 4-5 years as needed), ITS covers the standard or the equivalent cost of the device issued. Standard devices include Dell Laptops and Desktops and Mac Laptops and Minis.

Requesting departments are responsible for upgrades beyond the standard specifications (e.g., higher models, additional storage, peripherals, etc.).
