What kind of computer does the AE Department recommend?
Here are specific guidelines for an AE computer. The AE Department recommends PCs to all AE students. We also recommend that students consider the purchase of a wireless enabled portable Windows PC computer if they wish to gain full benefits from their computer. Please see the College of Engineering Wireless Announcement. Penn State’s Residential Computing Service and Support has put together a recommended minimum configuration checklist for a new IBM-compatible computer. Friendly, non-commission consultants are available at the Computer Store to discuss your computing needs with you. For further details, please visit the Student Computing Initiative page, Purchasing.
