Software Requests

If you would like to place a request for software (to be installed on MSU UIT Student Computer Labs computers only), please submit a ticket by emailing helpdesk@montana.edu

In your request, please include: Full Name; NetID; Contact Information; Department; Full Title of the requested software; Vendor Name; Cost and Licensing Information; and the Purpose of your request.

A Few Helpful Tips:

* Please place new software requests a minimum of 3 months prior to the desired date of use, to enable research, testing, and deployment (if approved) of any new software.

* The list of software currently included for these computers can be found on our MSU UIT Student Labs Software web page.

* Please review, to avoid requests for software which is already installed on Student Labs computers.

* If you are faculty or staff seeking software for your MSU-owned computer, or other non-Student-Labs computers, please see our Campus-licensed Software page, or contact the UIT ServiceDesk.

* If you are seeking software for your personally-owned computer, please inquire with your college, department, or contact the UIT ServiceDesk.

UIT Student Computer Labs uses Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), which is a different framework for computing than the norm, which may not work for some software.  As a result, we cannot guarantee that every software request is possible, sometimes due to licensing restrictions or lack of compatibility with VDI.
