Install Application or Software

Introduction

Bowdoin IT works with a large number of application authors and licensors in order to provide the largest number of software options available to you. We provide software for everything from office productivity to statistics to research and everything in between. If there is an application that you need to use in order to do your job or one that you may simply want to learn, click the Request Software button on the right.

Options Available

There are a large number of application titles available however licensing and other requirements do vary from application to application. Most can only be installed on computers owned by the College.

Some of the more common application requests include:

  • Adobe Acrobat DC
  • Adobe Photoshop
  • Adobe InDesign
  • SPSS
  • MatLab
  • R and RStudio
  • Mathematica
  • and many more

Available To

Faculty and staff can request software to be installed on any Bowdoin-issued computer. If the request is for a classroom or computer lab, we do ask that you use the request form here.

Service Promise

We will work to install the requested application within 3 business days assuming that we own licensing for the software. If we do not, there may be more work involved and we will work with you on those details.
