The workstations in IS-managed labs have three types of software loaded, general
software, specialized software, and accessibility
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.
- Accessibility software is used to enhance
navigation for people with disabilities and is installed on specific
workstations within the IS labs. It is installed on the following workstations:
- Bloch 110 Lab #19
- Miller Nichols Library 3rd Floor Lab #48
- Health Sciences Building Lab #03
- Royall Hall 303 Lab #01
- Royall Hall 304 Lab #24
- School of Education Lab #19
- University Center Lab #02

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 Vista
- Pentium IV 2800 MHz
- 1024 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.
