General Purpose Virtual Lab

Make a Reservation | Software List

To provide flexibility for instruction, the CAES Dean's Office Computing Resources Unit offers a General Purpose Virtual Lab with access to many of the same applications available in the physical Computer Labs.  Access to the General Purpose Virtual Lab is available to all students with class reservations in the General Purpose Virtual Lab or any of the physical Computer Labs.

If you are unable to login to the General Purpose Virtual Lab, but are registered for a course that has a lab reservation, please email lab-support@caes.ucdavis.edu for assistance.


Azure Class Lab

Make a Reservation | Software List

For classes that require specific resources (hardware or software) in addition to the flexibility of a Virtual Lab, the CAES Dean's Office Computing Resources Unit offers Azure Class Labs with access to high-performance virtual machines (eg. GPU's), specific software dedicated to the class, and more.  The infrastructure required to support an Azure Class Lab is provided through Microsoft Azure and does result in ongoing usage-based costs from Microsoft for the duration of the Azure Class Lab.  All costs associated with an Azure Class Lab are recharged to the requesting department.  Access to an Azure Class Lab is available to students with class reservations requiring an Azure Class Lab.

If you are unable to login to an Azure Class Lab, but are registered for a course that has a reservation, please email lab-support@caes.ucdavis.edu for assistance.
