Narrative
The College of Engineering & Computer Sciences 2nd Floor is dedicated to student classroom and laboratories. These rooms were outfitted with audio/visual equipment consisting of AV teaching lecterns, elmos, television displays and multiplexers. While initially state-of-the-art, the setup in these rooms have since been dated and in many cases  non-functional or broken. We are submitting this proposal for each of the labs in the 2nd floor as each room has different needs.


EE207 is the largest computer lab in the building consisting of 30 stations (60 seats). This room is used almost all during the class hours as well as in the evening for student projects and homework. We strive to keep the room open as long as possible by giving students 24x7 card access. The room however has daily AV issues which requires us to restart the equipment.

The submitted proposal will upgrade the hardware to the current technology as well as replace the projection TVs with LED TVs so that they can be clearer to see for the students.
