Software Package

The Tandon School of Engineering provides a software package for students that includes most of the applications needed for this course. Contact the Tandon IT Help Desk at soehelpdesk@nyu.edu for more information.

EG1004 does not offer support for any of the platforms listed below. The use of any of these platforms may cause formatting issues and submission troubles.

Unsupported Platforms

EG1004 explicitly does not offer support for any of the following platforms:

  • OpenOffice/LibreOffice
  • Google Docs
  • iWork: Pages, Numbers, and Keynote
  • Linux/Unix
  • ChromeOS
  • Mobile Devices: iOS/Android/Windows Phone

Lab PCs and NYU VCL

The PCs in JAB 573, 574, 576, and 577 are equipped with all the software you will need for the course. Access to these PCs is allowed during Open Lab sessions.

NYU offers a Virtual Computer Lab which has some of the software required by the course installed.

The recommended method of saving files on VCL is to use Google Drive. For more information, visit the Virtual Computer Lab (VCL): File Management page.

Printing Services

The NYU Print Service exists to help students meet their on-campus printing needs. The NYU Print Status tool has a live map that you can use to find printers nearby and see if they have paper, toner, and are functioning correctly. NYU IT does their best to keep this information as up-to-date as possible, but if you encounter a broken printer, please report it.

Microsoft Office

The full Microsoft Office 2021 application is available to be installed on student-owned Windows or Mac laptops by visiting the Tandon IT Help Desk or Tandon IT Laptop Help Desk. They are located in 2 MetroTech Center, 10th Floor, Rooms 1023 and 1018, respectively. Their hours are Mon–Fri 9am–5pm. If you are having trouble locating the help desks, please contact them at soehelpdesk@nyu.edu. The cost of the software is covered by the Technology Fee, paid as part of your tuition.

Microsoft offers free web versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The full applications are far superior to the web versions, so we strongly recommend you have them installed on your laptop.

Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are also available via the NYU Virtual Computer Lab, under General Use software.

Microsoft Project

Microsoft Project can be installed on Windows laptops by visiting the Tandon IT Help Desk or Tandon IT Laptop Help Desk. They are located in 2 MetroTech Center, 10th Floor, Rooms 1023 and 1018, respectively. Their hours are Mon–Fri 9am–5pm. If you are having trouble locating the help desks, please contact them at soehelpdesk@nyu.edu. The cost of the software is covered by the Technology Fee for EG1004 students, paid as part of your tuition.

The version of Microsoft Project used for this course does not have a Mac version. Mac users may install virtualization software or dual-boot with Windows to install Microsoft Project.

Microsoft Project is also available via the NYU Virtual Computer Lab, under General Use software.
