Computing resource requirements for distance education students

For computing subjects, students may complete requirements using suitable software on any of a range of computers. All subjects can be completed using a stand-alone microcomputer with modem. The Gippsland campus has networks of IBM/PC and 'compatibles,' and support is available for students using recommended software on these or similar machines. Students with other microcomputers which are not IBM or compatible should consult the course adviser or individual subject adviser to determine requirements.
Some computing subjects require access to the university or other suitable timesharing computers for use of software which is not available in the microcomputer environment.
