As part of our commitment to students, Information Services (IS) provides computer resources to all currently enrolled, fee-paying UMKC students.  These resources include but are not limited to:

  • Lab computers running Windows Vista,
  • File storage space,
  • Adaptive equipment (for persons with visual disabilities or wheelchair access needs), and
  • Digital scanner (for document, image, slide and negative scanning).

To reduce paper use, the University Center B17 computer lab now defaults to two-sided (duplex) printing. You can also choose to print two-sided pages in the Bloch 110, Royall Hall 314, and School of Education 129 computer labs.

Please take a look below for information and support concerning our student computing environment.

 New Student Email System

The new student e-mail system is now available for you to opt-in! The University of Missouri has partnered with Microsoft to provide enhanced e-mail services for students through the Microsoft Windows Live program. The new e-mail system, called Outlook Live, offers 10 gigabytes of e-mail storage, calendaring services, SkyDrive on-line document storage, integration with the University's Global Address List, and many other services.
