Most research has migrated to the college cluster of SGI workstations, or mini- and microcomputers in the research labs. Most labs have several personal computers that are used for data analysis and word processing. Nearly all departmental computers are now linked via a high-speed network. The College of Science and Math computer facilities also support instructional computing in Silicon Graphics, Sun, and DEC Alpha UNIX labs, two PowerMac labs and two Windows-NT labs. Chemical application software installed on the UNIX servers includes Gaussian 94, GCG, ISIS, and various molecular modeling and visualization programs.
Students have Internet access to e-mail and the Web from nearly any departmental computer.
