Facilities

Because most department courses use either open-source software or software tools that are free for academic use, you can generally configure your own machine to support the course work. This work for any machine running Linux, Windows, or Mac, provided that the machine is relatively current. Fast processors and solid-state drives are recommended.

Beyond student-owned machines, the department provides a variety of other facilities.

Class-Lab Facilities

  • Computing Lab: a 34-seat facility of custom, multi-boot (Linux, Windows) workstations.
  • Hardware Lab: a lab for assembling and/or diagnosing computer hardware.
  • Systems Lab: Systems Lab, a 24-seat specialized lab for OS, networking, and security work.

Research Facilities

  • SB321B: Server room and supercomputer.
  • Supercomputing Lab: This lab is the home of the department’s beowulf clusters.
  • CCEL Lab: This lab is the “brick and mortar” division of the Christian Classics Etherial Library.
