CSC121H Winter 2018: The Computer Science Teaching Labs

Overview

The CS department's Teaching Labs provide computing support for courses in Computer Science. You will need this account in CSC121 for when you want to work in the Bahen labs.

Note that the Computer Science Department is in the process of renaming these labs. You may see "CDF" or "Computing Disciplines Facilities" in some of the documentation. This is the old name for the Computer Science Teaching Labs.

You are welcome to use any of the Teaching Labs labs for your course work, as long as they aren't reserved for a particular course. You have access to the Bahen Centre ("BA") and our Teaching Labs 24 hours a day.

To enter one of the labs you will need to swipe your T-Card through the card reader that is installed outside of each door. You can also use your T-Card to get into the building itself during off hours.

In order to access the Teaching Labs remotely using your own computer, you will need to install additional software, called NX client software, on your computer. The Teaching Labs website provides detailed instructions. To view these instructions, you will need to enter your Teaching Labs account name and password.
