Important Notes
- Tablet devices (Such as iPads and Android based tablets) can be used to access some course content but will not substitute the need for a laptop.
- All students are required to have broadband Internet access for online learning content. (Cable, DSL, etc...)
- Dial-up and Mobile hot-spots provided by cellular providers are not recommended
- Headphones may be required for certain class assignments
- Webcams are becoming increasingly useful, even if not fully required by the Graduate School. Most laptops will have sufficient built-in webcams but for desktop users an external webcam would be beneficial.
