What are the OIT Computing Labs?
The OIT Computing Labs contain networked equipment and software that is readily accessible to any Rutgers student, faculty or staff member. These facilities are available on all Rutgers campuses. In New Brunswick, they are divided into two categories: • General Access Labs (GALs) • Instructional Microcomputer Labs (IMLs) The Instructional Microcomputer Labs are intended for holding classes. They can be reserved by instructors. They have special multimedia presentation facilities. The General Access Labs are available for students doing their own work. They are not arranged for holding classes, and cannot be reserved by instructors. When an IML is not reserved, it is available for students to use as GALs. There is a separate pages describing the Instructional Microlabs in more detail. In Newark and Camden, some of the public computing facilities may be used as IML’s, but they are not formally designated as IML’s.
