The goal of Wentworth Institute of Technology's Laptop Program — which began four years ago — is for every student to have a laptop by the Fall of 2009.
In order to accomplish this goal, Wentworth will provide all first year Fall 2008 entering students with a laptop computer outfitted with the complete suite of software used in their academic programs. Students will keep their assigned laptop as they progress through the program from year-to-year (a scheduled period to receive a new laptop and turn in the originally assigned laptop generally occurs during a student's junior year). The implementation of the laptop program represents a shift from our centralized model based on computer labs to a decentralized mobile computing environment that can be closely integrated with each individual's work in the studio, classroom, workshop, library, and many other areas on campus.
