Eos 2 Planning and Development

Eos 2 is a multi-year project in the college to create a next generation of engineering computing. Eos 2 focuses on our successful student-owned computing initiative by concentrating on the owned computers (office, home, mobile, desktop) of our faculty, staff, and students. The goals of Eos 2 are to empower faculty, staff, and students to take full advantage of the capabilities of their own computers, provide remote access to software and other services, and support targeted lab facilities for engineering computing in our academic departments. A key component of Eos 2 is support for user education across the college.
