There is a network of Unix workstations which provide Internet access for the University community, including email, news, and web access. All students, faculty, and staff are given free unlimited access from on-campus. Access to the Ethernet backbone is available throughout the campus, including each residence hall room. Workstations are available for instruction and research.

The University has several microcomputer laboratories that are accessible to both faculty and students on an essentially unrestricted basis. Both Windows and Macintosh systems are available. All student residence halls have microcomputer facilities.

The Department of Computer Science has its own instructional and research laboratories.

• The Instructional Laboratory houses microcomputers and Unix workstations. They are used in upper level computer science courses such as Operating Systems, Networking and Software Engineering.
• The Computer-Human Interaction Laboratory includes facilities to conduct research on behavioral aspects of computing such as the acquisition of computer expertise, hypertext, the design of user interface and human factors in computing. The laboratory has several microcomputers with peripherals, various recording devices, and software to support the development of research materials. The laboratory is used in graduate courses and for student and faculty research projects.
• The Software Engineering Laboratory includes facilities to conduct research in Client/Server computing, web development and software methodologies. A computer server supporting a state-of-the-art CASE tool, IBM Rational Suite Enterprise, is available for software engineering classes, faculty research and graduate student projects.
• The Computer-Networking Laboratory includes facilities to conduct research in Distributed and Parallel Processing. The lab has a network of Unix workstations and peripherals. The lab also hosts a linux based Beowulf cluster with 16 compute nodes, a high-speed switch and a Front-End Server which enables all users to remotely login to the multiprocessor system. The lab is used for faculty research and graduate student projects.

Each faculty member and graduate assistant has a microcomputer in his or her office that is part of a local area network with access to the University computing facilities as well as to the departmental instructional and research laboratories.

In addition to on-campus facilities, the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC), located in Columbus, Ohio, provides statewide access to University faculty for research and instruction.
