Computer Labs
Overview
Mercer County Community College maintains approximate 45 computer labs for student use.
About 35 are on the West Windsor campus, while 10 are at the Kerney Center.
These labs house nearly 1200 PCs and Macintoshes -- about 900 at the West Windsor Campus
and about 250 at the James Kerney Campus.
Most labs are associated with
courses. That is, a student will enroll in a course that has a lab component
where computers will be used to meet the educational goals of that course.
Students attend lab at regularly scheduled times as part of the course.
Open Labs
The library at the West Windsor
campus and the Learning Center at the James Kerney campus are the homes
of our open labs. The PCs in those labs have access to a wide variety of
programs and services, and can be used by any student or member of the
community on a space-available basis during regular Library and Learning
Center hours.

Open Labs for Specific Courses
Certain labs at West Windsor
are configured with special hardware and/or software to meet the goals
of certain of our programs. These rooms serve only Macintosh users, and
graphic arts and CAD students. Because this hardware/software is not widely
available, the college offers additional "open" hours in some of these
labs. The rooms involved are:
- ES Building
- 122
- 126 (open lab) Visual Arts students
- 130 (open lab) Visual Arts students
- 131 (open lab) Visual Arts students
- 133
- 134
- ET Building
- 212 (open lab) CAD students
- MS Building
- 211 (open lab) Science/Allied Health students
Internet access is generally not available from these labs, and general purpose
software is generally not available.
General Purpose Labs
The other labs at MCCC are general purpose computer labs and are used for instruction.
NOTE: A student may attend a general purpose lab while it is being used for instruction if
space is available and if the course instructor agrees.
If you need extra lab time
for your assignments, locate the labs that have the hardware and software
you need to use. Identify yourself to the instructor, preferably at the
beginning of the lab period, and ask if you can use a computer.
