The workstations in IS-managed labs have two types of software loaded, general software and specialized software.

  • General software includes the MS Office suite and other software that all UMKC students may find useful, regardless of their major. IS provides Student Assistants to help you use the general software loaded on lab machines.

  • Specialized software is class-specific software that only students in certain degree tracks will need. Please see your professor for assistance using class-specific software. This software varies depending on which lab you are using.

Please refer to the following for a complete list of what software is available in IS-managed labs and where you can find the software you need for your classes.

IS maintains a consistent, stable computing environment in all of its labs.  Ensuring this level of quality means limiting the available software for the most part to those applications faculty request to support their teaching initiatives.  New software is added three times a year, at the start of each semester.  Software submissions are subject to review for proper licensing and compatibility with the existing software set.  The deadline for software requests is three weeks prior to the first day of class for each regular semester.

If you are a faculty member* and wish to request new software or hardware in an IS-lab, please check to see if it meets these minimum system requirements:

  • Microsoft Windows XP
  • Pentium IV 2000 MHz
  • 512 MB RAM
  • 10 GB Hard Drive space
  • CD-ROM
  • 17" SVGA monitor
*Bloch School faculty should check with the IT Liaison in the Dean's office before sending software requests.

The new software request form, which contains further instructions, can be downloaded here.

If you are having problems in any of the public labs please contact one of the Lab Student Assistants for help.

If student assistants are unavailable in your lab you may also contact the UMKC Call Center for assistance.
