PC Labs - DTS
PC Labs offer Microsoft Windows 16GB RAM PCs with internet access, M365 applications and Apps Anywhere pre-installed for curriculum software. PC Labs located in departments also have departmental specified software pre-installed. PC Labs are in the process of being upgraded to Windows 11.
High Spec PC Labs
Some PC Labs have been upgraded with high performance computers which have an increased 32GB RAM and separate graphics card. We recommended going to one of these if you are going to be using Matlab, ArcGIS Pro, Blender, Anaconda, or Android Studio, or anything stats/data heavy, or you notice that the standard computers are struggling with response times.
High Spec PC Labs (marked H) are Palmer 101, Palmer G09, Agriculture GL20, Brian Hoskins GL68, and L33-120 at London Road.

Over vacations we will be switching off the PCs and monitors in the PC Labs to save energy.
- Switch on: You will need to turn on the PC and monitor using their power buttons.
- Switch off: When you've finished, please switch them off again before you leave.
