Computer labs and collaboration rooms

The general computer labs are supported by departmental-based facilities catering for postgraduates, research purposes and, in some departments, even for undergraduates from Part II and above.

The computing facilities enable students to access the internet, email and the online library resources along with a range of printing, photocopying and scanning options.

All students can access the internet for free by logging into computers using their usernames and passwords. The workstations dual boot into either a Windows or Linux environment.

The Student IT Hub is your digital support space, offering in-person and online assistance.

You can get specific details on access, passwords and logins, printing, software, and other IT-related services provided at the University.
