Academic Computing & Media Services (ACMS) supports technology in the classroom, online tools such as the campus learning management system, campus computing labs, student e-mail, hardware repair, the administration of software site licenses, the Distance Learning Center, and the Media Lab. 

Student Computing

The main function of ACMS is to provide facilities for instructional computing. In addition to servers, ACMS maintains over 1800 workstations of various types available across campus. These include Windows, Macintosh, and UNIX workstations located in public areas, computer labs, and libraries.

A wide variety of software is available on various platforms, including general office productivity and Web site design applications; compilers and program development tools; special purpose packages for electronic design, mechanical engineering, animation, statistics, genetic studies, and mathematics.

Beyond instructional computing, ACMS provides facilities to students for popular activities such as e-mail, personal Web sites, student organization Web sites, and other network-based communications. Incoming students receive personal account information after indicating their Intent to Register.

ACMS has student assistants who are available at scheduled times in computer labs to help students use the facilities. These assistants complement other forms of support such as guidance from instructors and teaching assistants, and online documentation.

ACMS provides both instructional and extracurricular computing services to students through a single “personalized” account. The goal is to make computing more convenient and flexible, and to allow students to pursue academic computing interests on their own initiative. Students can obtain a printing account and, for relatively low cost, print to high-quality black-and-white or color laser printers or large-format plotters.
