Laboratories
ISE Computer Labs
General Description
The ISE computer labs include a “teaching lab” with 40 student stations, one instruction station, and a ceiling-mounted projection system and a “working lab” that includes 30 student stations. The computers, printers, and network components are managed and maintained by the College of Engineering’s Engineering Network Services group.
The labs both have card-swipe door locks and are available for student and classroom use 24 hours/day.
Computer Configuration
The systems in both labs are very similar. The specifications for the majority of the systems are given below (the minor differences in configurations come primarily from repairs).
