Services

We provide computer support for the Department's faculty, staff, postdocs and students. Our services include new hardware setup, software installations and upgrades, consultation on computer related purchases, and centralized system and network administration.

We also maintain various student computer labs, in particular the Graduate Computer Lab located in 2105 NW. This facility contains several modern PCs, Macintoshes and UNIX workstations, as well as both color and black-and-white printing and scanning devices. It also contains software to support the graphics, plotting, word processing and molecular modeling needs of the chemistry community.
