Computers
Hardware
Brandeis has arranged with Apple and Dell for the Brandeis community to purchase new computers at extremely competitive prices. If you are considering the purchase of a new desktop or laptop computer, you will find that these prices are lower than most other name-brand manufacturers for models with the same features. Although you are taking advantage of Brandeis discounts, you are buying the computer directly from the manufacturer.
To learn more about Brandeis-sponsored computer discounts, visit the vendors' websites. Institutional purchases are computers to be used in Brandeis offices.
For more information, review Hardware Purchasing for Faculty and Staff on the Library and Technology Services website, or contact Lisa DeLetter in procurement services.
Software
Library and Technology Services (LTS) has purchased campus licenses for some software and has arranged for special bulk pricing for other software packages. For more information, review Software Purchasing on the LTS website.
To purchase software the LTS does not support, contact Lisa DeLetter in procurement services.
