Reserving the Lab:

Scheduling CAS Lab 330 for classes is done here.  If you intend to reserve the lab for a class this upcoming semester, or if you have already it reserved, please contact our office. The sooner we know about your technical requirements for the upcoming semester, the sooner we can address them.

Software Installation Policy:

The lab computers are configured to provide a specific suite of application software that meets the needs of most students. The lab is not equipped to support all commercially available software.

1. We will not install software without proper licensing.
2. We will not install software which requires the users to have administrative privileges.
3. We require at least 20 business days before each semester or 10 business days during a semester to properly test, install, and configure lab software.
4. If a non-standard software package is requested we may require explicit installation instructions. We do not provide full support for all software packages installed in CAS 330.
