Computer Labs

 

Main Computer Lab

The main computer lab is an open lab with 112 stations where students can work on projects outside of class. The lab is equipped with printers, scanners and other equipment to meet student needs, doubling our former capacity.

The computer lab is designed to support student class work with both Microsoft Office for preparation of papers, reports, and analysis, as well as, providing access to specialized software to include statistical, financial, accounting, programming, and simulations software that cannot be provided to students for home use based on licensing agreements. Twelve workstations are available for students who need to work on group projects.

The most common configuration for computers in this lab are:

  • 3.2 GHz computer
  • 1 GB RAM Memory
  • 128 MB Video Cards
  • Both USB Key Memory and 3 ¼ Floppy Disk
  • Access capability to network storage and web space
  • 17” Flat panel monitors
  • 100 Megabit per second network connections

The computer lab is located in the lower level of the building near the student lounge/study area (room 22).

Computer Classrooms

Computer classrooms are designed to provide a teaching environment that develops specific business software expertise. In these classrooms instructors can work with students to help them master the technology skills needed in their particular field, as well as learn how software assists in information gathering, analysis, and organization of material for presentation and effective decision making.

There are five computer classrooms in the lab facility ranging in size from 28 to 40 student seats. The largest classroom at 40 seats was established to match general classroom size in the rest of the building. This classroom is blocked to support classes normally held in regular classrooms that need to use the lab for a week or more to develop specific software expertise for out of class assignments.

The most common configuration for classroom computers are:

  • 3.2 GHz computer
  • 1 GB RAM Memory
  • 128 MB Video Cards
  • Both USB Key Memory and 3 ¼ Floppy Disk
  • Access capability to network storage and web space
  • 17” Flat panel monitors
  • 100 Megabit per second network connections

The computer classrooms are located in the lower level of the building adjacent to the atrium (rooms 22C, 22E, 22F, 22G, and 22H).
