Ivey Technology Requirements

I understand I need a laptop for the Ivey MSc program. What type of laptop do I need?

The specifications required for your laptop are listed at www.ivey.uwo.ca/itcenter/studentnew/support/notebookspecs.htm

 

What type of calculator will I need?

Each computer is equipped with both a calculator and Excel program which can be used instead of an actual calculator. Most students use these instead of handheld calculators.

 

I will be entering Ivey's MSc Program and was reading up on your requirements/suggestions for laptops. I noticed that you suggest Microsoft Office Professional. On my laptop I currently have the student version of Microsoft Office, which does not include Microsoft Access.

It is unlikely that you will need ACCESS during the Ivey MSc program. Wait until you are here in the program to see if it is necessary to upgrade your software package.
