Information technology (IT) requirements - clinical programmes
While studying a clinical programme you will need to have access to a laptop or desktop computer so that you can complete the requirements of your programme.
This is because:
- You need to be able to download required operating systems updates for important software you may be using
- Assessments are increasingly moving online
- You need to be able to move to e-learning, i.e., online learning, if required
We do not recommend using:
- Tablets
- Chromebooks
- Smart phones
These devices often do not have the required hardware to successfully run all required software.
