Computers
ITS issues laptops rather than desktops unless the employee specifically requests a desktop computer. Laptops will come with docks/stands, external monitors, keyboards, etc so that employees have sufficient screen real estate while working at their desks and better options for ergonomic working conditions.

ITS staff, please see our list of older standard computers
Peripherals
Peripherals such as monitors, keyboard, and laptop stands are replaced as needed.
Monitors
The standard policy is that each employee gets two "screens" included in their standard setup. This will be either a laptop (or iMac desktop) with 1 external monitor; or a screen-less desktop (e.g. Dell mini-tower) with 2 external monitors.
If additional monitors are needed, please place a Hardware Request and provide a budget code that we can charge for additional equipment. Note the monitors listed below may not be the exact models currently available, but should be comparable to available monitors. ITS may also deploy used monitors, but if so, those monitors will be of comparable quality and working condition.
Laptop Docks/Stands
Mouse options
- Apple wireless Magic Mouse
- Apple wired Magic Mouse (limited to existing stock, no longer sold by Apple)
- Microsoft/Dell/Logitech wired mouse
Keyboard options
Optional Changes/Additions Available
Many options are available to meet your needs. Typically ITS will charge your budget number for the cost of additional/custom equipment.
