The 24x7 University Computer Lab at the Jennings A. Jones College of Business provides services to over 12,000 students per semester. 1) Addition of one laser printer to better serve our students. The Lab currently have four printers serving the main open lab area (122 computers). During the semester we have found that on peak season, students waiting times to pick up print jobs becomes very long. In other to provide a better service, we propose the addition of one more laser printer to the open lab. 2)Purchasing of Oxmetrics econometric software for use by students in the College of Business, allowing access to state-of-the art statistical routines that are not currently available. The Oxmetrics package consists of 4 different bundled programs, intended for both beginner and advanced students in economics, finance, and other disciplines. Oxmetrics is produced in the United Kingdom by world-class researchers. Classes that would benefit from the software include: ECON 3910 (15 students), ECON 4620 (15), ECON 4570 (40), ECON 6620 (15), ECON 6630 (15), and ECON 7121 (6), and students in the PhD research seminar. Other users include Ph.D. dissertation students, typically involving up to 15 students at any point in time. We propose purchasing the unlimited academic enterprise PLUS with the 3 year option that includes both a perpetual license and the first three years of maintenance. This price is $6,144 per annum. Continued maintenance after the 3 years is optional. The Business and Economic Research Center (BERC) has agreed to pay half the annual cost of the software. We propose installing the software in the COB 24x7 university computer lab, in the economics graduate student lab (BAS N304), in the BERC, in computer-equipped classrooms (BAS 315), S302 and S306) and on faculty laptop computers by if requested. The site license from Timberlake Consultants will allow use of the software this manner.
