Computer Labs

There are over 550 computers for student use in computer labs and resource centers across campus. Each computer lab contains networked PC (Windows) and Apple (mac OS) computers.

All computers provide high speed access to the Internet, USB ports, and include the most commonly needed software applications, discipline-specific software, and access to double-sided laser printing.

WIU–Quad Cities also operates its own full-service lab for students on the WIU–Quad Cities campus.

Note that departments also operate some of their own labs which are specific to their discipline and are not maintained or supported by uTech unless requested.
