Workspace Setup Options

Information Technology Services (ITS) offers faculty and staff a variety of different desk configuration options. Our recommended setup is a laptop plus one monitor with a dock and wireless keyboard/mouse. This provides the user with the convenience of a laptop, but they can also enjoy a setup similar to a desktop when their laptop is plugged into the dock.

Information regarding what is included with University laptops is outlined in this article.

Please review our Device & Accessory Purchasing Guidelines prior to purchasing add-ons and peripherals.
