System Outline

The Information Media Studies System provides a learning environment for classes and self-study using computers by installing approximately about 1,100 personal computers as information media terminals.

These terminals installed separately in each Satellite laboratory of nine departments as well as the Center Laboratory, and used for professional education using computers including media literacy education.

In addition, there are computers available at the Institute of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and Nagoya University Library.

Center Laboratory and Satellite Laboratories

The Center Laboratory and Satellite Laboratories are dispersed throughout the campus, but each is a base for information media education, linked by the Information Media Studies System.

The systems of these laboratories are connected by a dedicated network for high-speed communication.

Faculty members and students can conduct classes and self-study at the satellite laboratories of their departments.

The locations of the terminals and the system configuration are shown in the table below.
