Software Services

The Software Services Team manage several deals for software widely used at the University.

We are a small team that administers several site licenses and bulk purchase deals. We facilitate the distribution of software and codes, sometimes recouping costs at a College, School or individual level, within the terms and conditions of the licenses. Please note: we are unable to assist with individual software purchases, and we are unable to recommend specific software.

This section is about how to obtain site licensed software for units and schools. Some software can be ordered directly through Software Services Team, other software is ordered directly through a publisher or a reseller.

Students can get personal copies or home use software through some university site licenses, either "free", as a special deal or via an academic discount site.

This section contains the main software agreements and special deals we administer for the University. Choose an agreement to see who is eligible and how to get the software. Please note that we do not recommend specific software or assist with individual license purchases.

Disclaimer

Software prices and availability may change without notice. Site license deals and special purchase deals often depend on sufficient demand within the University and the academic community as a whole, therefore the discounted prices available through these schemes cannot be guaranteed to be available indefinitely.

It is up to the individual to choose software that meets their requirements. IS is not responsible for errors or lack of functionality in externally-produced software.

The provision under a special deal or site license does not necessarily imply support and/or endorsement by IS.
