Student Network
Campus Facilities

Workstations are connected to the student network in three environments:

Student Workstations Accessible by all students, staff and visitors at the University
Booking Student Labs Can be booked by any member of staff
Teaching & Learning Space Teaching PCs for use by academic staff and visiting lecturers
Video-conference Suites Each main suite contains a PC for presentations or internet activity

Student Workstations

Information Services is responsible for over 20 IT laboratories (and over 1500 student PCs) throughout the University. Student PCs are also available within the new LRCs on each campus. Windows 7 is installed as the operating system in LRC areas and Windows XP is installed in all other student laboratories. A laboratory, if closed for security reasons, can be opened by security staff on production of a valid Student ID card. A letter from the student's lecturer requesting the use of the facilities gives added assurance that access will be granted. For further information regarding the facilities and software profiles in each lab across campuses, please select the appropriate link below:

Any member of staff who wishes to book a student PC laboratory should use the online Room Bookings system (click here to access). Each lab has a set of core applications installed, some have additional software listed as Faculty software. The four campus links above show software profiles in each lab.
Note: It is the responsibility of the person intending to book a student lab to check that any specific software that is required is installed.
