Important Notes
- Tablet devices (Such as iPads and Android based tablets) can be used to access some course content but will not substitute the need for a laptop. This does not apply to tablets running full versions of Windows 10, such as the Microsoft Surface devices.
- All students are required to have broadband Internet access for online learning content. (Cable, DSL, etc...)
- Dial-up and Mobile hot-spots provided by cellular providers are not recommended
- Internet Explorer is not recommended. Mozilla FireFox, Google Chrome, and updated versions of Microsoft Edge are stable alternatives
- Headphones may be required for certain class assignments
- Webcams are becoming increasingly useful, even if not fully required by the Graduate School. Most laptops will have sufficient built-in webcams but for desktop users an external webcam would be beneficial.
- The TTUHSC now has license agreements with Box and Zoom. Both are fully compatible
with Windows 10, Mac OS X, Android, and iOS operating systems.
- To request a Box account please visit the TTUHSC IT Box webpage
- To request a TTUHSC Zoom account please contact the IT Solution Center at (806)743-1234
