Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There are several computer labs on campus, all of which are very accommodating to the students. You shouldn’t have a problem finding a computer to use as long as it’s not during finals week. During finals week, you may want to go early to hunt out a computer, or bring a laptop from home if you have one.

The library offers a fabulous service that rents out laptops for up to four hours at a time! Of course, you can’t leave the library premises with them, but you can set up anywhere in the library and connect wirelessly to the Internet instantly. UCF has a fast wireless connection that would satisfy even the most impatient person. The computers are new and up-to-date, with easy access to all of UCF’s programs. It would be nice if printing was free, but the five-cents-per-page fee isn’t too bad. You are permitted up to 20 pages of free printing per day at the Student Government Lab, which is helpful and sufficient. Overall, the technology at UCF is good enough to enable students to get the job done. We’re no MIT, but UCF is not technologically obsolete by any means.

Technology Center

The wifi around campus is pretty reliable, except in some classrooms. There was a new technology center recently redone and it is amazing. It was refurbished with macs and a bunch of other technological devices.

Computer Labs

There are several computer labs on campus, and some dedicated for free printing only. The only reason for the low grade is that there is almost always a wait to use a computer in any of the printing labs. There are ample softwares and up to date computers available for use. They even have several macs for use as well. Students have access to one of the best research databases also.

Did You Know?

There are plug-in ports for Internet access in the Starbucks cafe located in the bookstore. You can sign out laptops for personal use on the third floor of the library.

You must have money on your student identification card in order for your document to print. Most major labs don’t charge a printing fee, such as the engineering lab and the English lab. There’s a student government lab on the second floor of the student union that’s open to all students and allows you to print up to 20 pages per day free of charge. The SGA lab has a fax machine that only costs students a dollar for local calls. There’s also a poster machine available to students, along with an office supply station with hole punchers, staplers, tape, paperclips, and so on available for student use.
