Q: How do I get software installed in a lab for a class I teach?
A: Please review our software installation request page.
Q: If I want to get software installed in one of the labs who pays for it?
A: If it serves a large number of people at UT Arlington then OIT will seek funding for the software. If the software directly serves a limited number of people then the group will need to seek it's own funding. Please click here to learn more.

Q: How do I print to a lab printer from UNIX (omega/gamma)?
