Technical Requirements
This course requires the minimum computer tools described below. Please understand that the described packages are only a minimum, and as you begin to run more software and your savvy as an internet user increases, you may find that these tools are not enough for your needs. If you have a system which meets the minimum but believe you want more from your tools, feel free to contact one of the instructors about any questions or concerns you have.
However, you do not need to own a computer to complete the program (although it is will be more difficult). You may use campus computer labs to do your work.
Hardware
An Intel-based Pentium PC; 64 MB or more of RAM (128 MB recommended); 28.8 or faster modem (56K recommended) or direct connection to the Internet; and Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows 98 operating system.
OR
A Power Macintosh compatible computer with System 9.0 or higher; 64 MB or more of RAM (128 MB recommended); 28.8 or faster modem (56K recommended), or direct connection to the Internet; and Netscape 5.0 or higher, or Internet Explorer 4.1 or higher.
If you do not know your computer's operating system or if your system does not meet the minimum requirements or if you will need to use campus computer labs, please contact the instructors at 517.355.9300.
