Software Overview

University software is available to eligible users—depending on one's campus affiliation, licensing agreements, user location and computer ownership— via automatic installer using Software Center (for Windows OS users) and NTS Self Service (for Mac OS users), or via Manual Installation for users who are working on computers outside of the University Domain or downloading software that is only accessible via manual installation.

NTS proactively manages the entire lifecycle of all university-owned devices enrolled in UA Domain. This includes deploying and maintaining software, responding to security threats, distributing settings and software inventory. By enrolling your university-owned computer, you can install approved software on demand.

For authorization, the devices must either be physically on campus or you must be logged in to the UA VPN.

NTS Self Service allows users to install licensed UA software on their Apple Computers.
