Computer
Cartography Laboratory
and Social Sciences Computing Lab
Thanks to a
nearly $30,000 grant from the Student Technology Fee board, the Department of
Social Sciences was able to radically increase its computing power and afford
students a better opportunity to prepare themselves for the technological
challenges of modern social sciences.
The lab is equipped with 25 computer workstations, loaded with GIS (MapInfo
and ArcView) and statistical software packages, along with the standard complement
of word processing and database management software. New printers and networking equipment have been recently
installed. Combined with the resources
available in the Department of Forestry’s Spatial
Data Lab, social science students at Louisiana Tech University can take
advantage of some of the best high-tech facilities in the South.
