About the GSE&IS Computer Labs
GSE&IS provides two types of labs supported by the Educational Technology Unit: two labs for general use and one for advanced analysis. Labs are open to faculty, staff, and students with valid GSE&IS logins. Reservations for the labs can be made for courses and workshops, but anytime the labs are not scheduled for a reserved event, they are open for individual use. General labs are open Monday-Friday, 8:00-5:00pm. After hours, they can be accessed with the doorcode provided on your login sheet. The advanced analysis lab is locked at all times; those who are authorized to use it can obtain a door code at the ETU office.
General Use Labs
ETU maintains two general use computer labs in Moore 3120 and GSE&IS 118. Each lab has dual-boot iMacs which will run Mac OS X or Windows 7. Use of the computer labs in GSE&IS is limited to full-time GSE&IS students, faculty, and staff, and students outside GSE&IS taking one or more GSE&IS courses for the quarter.
Lab availability is subject to prior reservation. Check the calendar for a current list of reservations.

GSE&IS Lab Printing
The GSE&IS General Labs provide pre-paid laser printing at a cost of $.05 per page. The minimum cost is $5.00 for 100 pages.
- Purchasing Print Credits: Print credits credits may be purchased at any time with a credit card or electronic check from the from the GSE&IS Print Credits website (http://printpay.gseis.ucla.edu). Print credits are available in $5.00 increments (up to $30) or $10.00 increments ($40.00-$100.00).
- Redeeming Print Credits: Print credits are valid as long as the student is maintains GSE&IS enrollment. Any print credits remaining at the end of the academic year will be valid during the next academic year as long as the student is enrolled in at least one fall quarter course. There are no refunds for unused print credits, so if you are unsure of your printing needs, please purchase credits in small increments throughout the year.
- Credit Balance: Any time a student is logged into a GSE&IS lab computer, a counter on the desktop displays the remaining print credits.
If you have any questions regarding printing credits, please contact ETU before submitting a purchase.
Advanced Analysis Lab
The Advanced Analysis Lab has computers and peripherals to conduct high-end statistical analysis, and is located in Moore 2028.
