HSC Mandatory Student Laptop ProgramIn 1998, West Virginia University Health Sciences Center established the HSC Student Computer Program to assist students in furthering their education through use of powerful computing resources. Students entering the Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy and Nursing are issued a Lenovo ThinkPad notebook computer for use as an integral part of the curriculum. The computer program provides a portal for online education, access to our Library's electronic collection, a software package that includes electronic versions of medical resource materials, wireless network access within the Health Sciences Center, off-site access, on-campus printers and supplies, warranty and insurance coverage, and onsite Lenovo certified technical support/maintenance for hardware/software problems through the Classroom Technology unit. Our program goal is to provide our students with computer literacy skills to assist the student with learning, test taking, patient care, research, managed care, and hospital record keeping. Our Classroom Technology unit provides classroom support to faculty/students for laptop use within the classrooms and provides all maintenance repairs as part of the Lenovo Self-Maintainer Program. |
