Computers & Printing
How to save your work
All student-facing computers at the University are protected by DeepFreeze which reverts the machine back to a default state at every restart. If you save your work to the computer, you'll lose it if/when the machine restarts. So make sure you save your work to an external device (USB drive, DVD etc.), email it to yourself or save it to your network N: drive.
AV resources
The Computing and Media Services team can loan a range of AV equipment (e.g. projectors, video cameras, laptops etc.) to students, and offer access to recording facilities for lectures, seminars, observations etc.
Media staff can also arrange support for the use of recording facilities for students working on projects. We'll need five days' notice, so be sure to get in early with any requests.
Student number and storage
When you join the University, you'll be allocated a student number and password. These will form your network login and authentication to access resources on the network, email, Learning Space, WiFi and computers. We advise all students to set up a profile on the Password Reset Manager system so they can change their password to something a little more memorable.
As a student with us, you'll have your own private storage folder on our network, which allows you to store up to 500Mb of data. Look for the letter 'N': followed by your unique student number.
Eduroam
Eduroam is a wireless roaming service for higher education users. It is available across campus.
If you are visiting other institutions, you do not need a guest logon while you visit. You can instead connect to their Eduroam wireless network and use your Marjon logon details to logon.
Your account (username and password) is dealt with by Eduroam and authenticated with your Marjon network logon details.
For your username, the whole username@marjon.ac.uk is required to identify your account at Marjon from other location.
