The Department of Computing is responsible for the management of it's own IT resources within the College. This includes servers, workstations, printers and associated hardware and software in the Department's labs and buildings.

Our servers provide many important services to the Department, one of the most critical being the departmental database. They also operate an internal mailing-list system and manage network access to shared resources, such as printers and networked disk-drives.

The Department manages four computer labs, each of which contains a laser-printer and 20-30 networked PC's running Windows. The PC's have a selection of software specialised to meet the academic needs of the Department and also provide direct access to our servers and the wider Internet.

The Department employs two full-time IT support staff; one systems administrator and one systems support technician.
