The New Brunswick Campus Computing Centers offer a wide range of services to students and faculty year round, with schedules that adapt to meet varying demands of the school year. With over one million user sessions logged last year and over five million pages printed, it is clear that Rutgers students are ready to use this technology as a learning tool. Faculty who would like to incorporate computing in their curriculum should acquaint themselves with these services in order to understand what they and their students have access to. When not reserved for classes, the IMLs are open for general use.
All labs provide laser printing and many labs also offer scanning and color printing.
Many popular software packages are available including word processing, spreadsheet, database, desktop publishing, and integrated packages. In addition, in response to faculty requests, some specialized or course-specific software is available. Internet services such as e-mail, Netnews, and the World Wide Web can be accessed from our computing centers. Most Computing Centers are staffed with student computer consultants, so a lack of computer expertise is no barrier to using our equipment. The consultants have been well-trained and their technical and interpersonal skills are used regularly in helping novices to become computer literate.
