	Jacobs Computer Lab

The Kellogg School continually invests in facilities and systems to meet the technological needs and interests of students. Each department at the Kellogg School allocates desktop computer hardware and software for the use of its doctoral students. All PhD carrels have network access to connect a laptop either through wireless networking or through a hardwire connection.

Additionally, PhD students have the option of participating in the Kellogg Laptop Program, which is highly recommended for MBA students. Students receive hardware and software support from the school if they purchase the specified laptop computer preloaded with the software used at the Kellogg School. The model for the subsequent year is chosen each spring. The Kellogg School’s computing labs are designed to provide students with specialized statistical and mathematical software applications and supplemental data resources such as a Bloomberg terminal. Classrooms are equipped with network connectivity and computer projection equipment. Kellogg faculty members integrate technology with the learning experience throughout the curriculum.

To help students make effective use of the necessary computing applications and datasets available at Kellogg, the school hosts a technology training program for new doctoral students during orientation and provides ongoing training and technical support.
