Technology on Campus
Stonehill College recognizes the importance of technology by providing a robust infrastructure, a variety of networked resources and accessible support services to enhance the learning environment.
Network
Our high speed fiber optic network connects each room in every building to the internet and to Internet2, the advanced research network that promotes collaboration and innovation amongst higher education institutions.
Wireless Access
Wireless network access is available in many campus locations including the Library, academic buildings, the dining commons and residential common areas. An ongoing expansion of wireless will facilitate network access from anywhere on campus.
Learning Spaces
Students have access to more than 300 computers, both PC and Mac, in general access labs and classrooms throughout the campus. Stanger Hall is home to the largest of these facilities, a 50-workstation lab open most days until midnight. A comprehensive suite of software is provided to support a variety of tasks from editing a paper to performing statistical analysis.
Classrooms- Students attend classes in more than 70 computer-equipped classrooms where information and multimedia resources bring learning alive.
The MacPhaidin Library contains computer labs, video viewing rooms, study areas, and comfortable seating in sunny locations, perfect for curling up with a laptop.
Student Laptops
Our partnership with CampusHP provides a cost effective option for students to purchase business class laptop computers. Orders are easily placed through the online storefront which supports delivery of a fully loaded computer to home or campus. Repairs and support are serviced through an on campus facility offering convenience for the full four year experience at Stonehill
Support
The Help Desk is the single place to seek assistance with technology issues and is accessible via email, the phone or by visiting in person. Training sessions and online materials help the entire community keep up with the constant advancements in technology. Students have the opportunity to gain valuable experience and skills through on campus jobs at the Help Desk and with other Information Technology units.
