WEPA allows you to send your print jobs from on or off-campus to the cloud and then release the job at any of the kiosks. You can send your print job from your desktop, laptop, or iOS/Android device. Or you can print from your USB key at a kiosk. One sided or duplex printing options in color or black and white are available. The print stations are available in the SBSG 4200 computer lab and in the lobby of SE 1.

Social and Behavioral Sciences 4200 is our only instructional lab. When classes are in session, please use SE 1- 306 or the OIT labs as an alternative. You may find information about when the labs are occupied by checking the online lab schedule.
Software in our labs include: Windows 11, Adobe Acrobat (reader), Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access), Firefox, Microsoft Edge, ArcGIS Pro, SPSS (only in 4200), SAS (only in 4200), Stata (limit 25 users at a time), and MPlus (5 users at a time on any lab computer).
Installation of software on any Social Ecology lab PC is prohibited. These machines have been set up to meet the needs of all classes and graduate students. Please check the Open Access OIT lab schedule for software available in their labs.
Other Computing Labs: Office of Information Technology (OIT) has an open access lab in the Social Science tower. This is the closest lab to our School. For more information, please check out UCI Open Access Labs.

You can visit OIT's site for their contact information and posted hours. If you have any questions about who to turn to, please
