217 Student Computing Lab

 

. The 217 Lab is designed to meet the computing needs of undergraduate and graduate students. All computers in this lab are high end workstation class systems designed for computation. The contact for this lab is Ed Meyer.

A few notes about the lab: Please contact Ed Meyer for all software installation needs, and issues related to hardware or currently installed software. All PC computers in the lab are on the KIEWIT Domain and can be accessed by current Earth Sciences undergraduates and graduate students with a KEWIT account. All local files must be saved in the student _documents or faculty _documents folders. These are public computers, so please backup your work to a USB key, CD, DVD, or GEO on a regular basis.
