The Instructional Wing of the College of Computing Building (CCB) houses 7 classrooms and 4 instructional labs/clusters with over 225 seats providing to CS courses that require special software or capabilities not readily available in the shared-use clusters provided by OIT. Included in our Instructional lab facilities is an innovative Thin-Client Lab that is proving the viability of extending multiple operating systems via appliance computing and changing the way we remotely access instructional facilities via the use of web browser based desktop computing. All CoC instructional labs are made available to the faculty and graduate students of the College as a general resource. A spacious Commons Area provides ample seating, computer networking and power fostering both formal and informal learning opportunities and collaboration.
