Student IT Facilities
Overview
Using computers is now an essential skill for many students - whether this is to type up your assignment, search the web, access our extensive learning resources or communicate with staff and other students on your course.
As soon as you are registered as a student at Staffs, you are provided with a personal username and password, allowing you to access your University email account, together with your personalised storage area on one of our central servers, online learning material, plus a wide range of online resources.
In an IT-based world, we are proud of what we have to offer and we can help you develop the essential IT skills you need to take with you once you leave University.
Where can I find a computer?
We have IT Learning Centres on all of the main University campuses, together with computers within the University Libraries and Flexible Learning Areas.
All student PCs have standard essential software, for which we provide full support. This includes Microsoft® Office. There may also be more specialised software for your subject installed on PCs in certain areas, just ask at the help desks for more information.
Within the IT Learning Centres, there are facilities for users with a disability, including height-adjustable desks, large screens and a range of specialised software.
