Narrative

This technology fee proposal is requesting to upgrade aging computer equipment to allow our students to fully utilize the Engineering Cloud. The upgrades are for labs in Engineering East 203, 210, open lab 101 and Engineering West 130, 170 and SeaTech 232. These labs are extensively used by undergraduate students for all electrical and computer engineering classes that require access to measurement instruments and technologies. These rooms are also used as a classrooms for teaching classes related to the equipment and college curriculum. Open lab EE101 is also accessible to students from other collages.

The original equipment in these rooms is 5+ years old and not supported by the vendor anymore. This caused issues for our students in that they do not get all the benefits of our cloud and equipment is starting to fail.?

Facilities
No facility renovations are required as part of the proposed project.?
Hardware Requirements
The hardware quoted is conform the latest standard as used by our college and will provide for 52 updated desktops for students and 24 dual-screen setups.?
Software Requirements
This request is for hardware only as all software is already implemented in the Engineering Cloud.?
Personnel Costs
As the project will be implemented by the College of Engineering and Computer Science Technical Services Group there will be no additional personnel costs involved.?
Other Costs
No additional costs are projected.?
Timeline
If funded the project can be implemented almost immediately during times that the class rooms are not in use or on-the-fly as replacing one workplace at a time would cause minimal impact to the students.?
Sustainability
The proposed hardware will come with a 3 year warranty.
Resource Matching
There are no matching resources available for this project.?
Implementing Organization
College of Engineering and Computer Science Technical Services Group?
