In order to provide an updated computing environment, DECS upgraded all DECS managed computer labs from Microsoft Office 2007 to Microsoft Office 2010. This includes 1307, 1312, 1318, 1320, 1325, 1328, 1515 (Engineering Library), 2200, 2314, Wilson Hall room G79, and Wilson Hall room C4.
If there are any questions regarding this upgrade, please contact the DECS Support Office at support@egr.msu.edu or 517-353-8891.
To support the Engineering Residential experience, an engineering computer lab was installed in Wilson Hall. The computer lab provides the technology resources for the EGR 100 and 102 classes. The lab has been equipped with new furniture, high-end technology, and access to all of engineering technology resources.
In order to make instruction in the DECS supported computer labs easier, ceiling speakers and a wireless microphone system were installed in each lab. This system allows sound to be sent from the instructor's computer station to the ceiling speakers, which is especially helpful when showing a video on the projector.
This computer lab was converted into a new high-tech workspace. This space was designed and created to provide a lab better suited for working in groups, student collaboration and presentations. Thirteen Twenty comes complete with Smart-board, copy center, meeting tables w/plug-ins for laptops, comfort seating, and cable TV! Thirteen Twenty is the room name and it is on the first floor just across from the north entrance. Look for the sign right above the door!
