LTS has purchased campus licenses for some software and has arranged for special bulk pricing for other software packages. To purchase software listed on this page, please go to the Software Purchase Request Form.
Brandeis participates in the Microsoft Campus Agreement, which allows all faculty and staff the rights to use the most current versions of the following products:
This agreement provides the user with a license to use the software; but does not include the actual media. The campus agreement also allows for home use of Microsoft Office by faculty and staff, for business use only. A special home-use media kit containing a maximum of two installs for one machine can be purchased from the Repair Shop, for a $5 fee (faculty/staff ID required), or you can arrange to bring your home computer in to have the software installed by one of our technology coordinators at no charge.
The agreement does not allow for the loaning and distribution of media and install codes.
While on campus, faculty and staff can install MS Office software on authorized machines.

This agreement provides the user with a license to use the OS; it does not include the actual media or manuals, which may be purchased separately. Operating system upgrades will be installed by LTS staff or by departmental technology coordinators. Personal machines owned by faculty or staff are not included.
