Dear faculty,

Welcome back for the Spring 2016 semester. We had requested you to submit your instructional IT needs via email by Nasser Alaeddine on the 9th of November. I sent a reminder on the 18th of November.

I am pleased to share that we have fulfilled all the requests for software (with one exception where the instructors have been communicated). The Clusters and https://virtual.qatar.cmu.edu have been updated with the new software.

If you forgot to request software back in November, please note that the older versions of several software packages in the Clusters. However, the software has not been tested and is likely to not work throughout the semester. (It is a lot of work to ensure that requested software is provisioned and kept functional, doing the same for unknown software simply is not feasible).

If you wish to request software for your course, please immediately fill the following online form:

https://itdev2.qatar.cmu.edu/forms/instructional-it-needs/

It will take about 3 to 4 weeks to provision the software.

We wish you a successful Spring semester. Thank you.
