Currently you’re only able to connect to Windows computers. However, we’re working hard to set up access to our Mac computers for specialist subjects.
If you need to access Macs for specialist Mac software, then please speak with your lecturer. They can then contact IT to discuss the specific requirements.
Most software which is installed on our Mac computers is also installed on our Windows computers. Please use the Windows computers where possible.
