Remote Labs
The UMS RemoteLab system provides students and faculty with the ability to access academic software typically restricted to physical computer labs from home. This service establishes a remote connection to a Windows PC workstation located in a physical computer lab on one of our campuses. This service supports remote connections from either a home Windows PC or Mac. Software that is currently available through this service is the same as that offered by the respective labs.
The SOLIDWORKS Student Access License takes you out of the classroom to extend your learning experience. The Student Access License is designed for students and educators that currently use the SOLIDWORKS Education Edition at their school. Certain restrictions apply. Only schools can request eligibility. Student Access is subject to qualification. 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS for Students. Build on the capabilities of the SOLIDWORKS Student Edition with cloud-based collaboration, integrated cloud storage, and pure cloud CAD accessible from anywhere on any device.
