VMware and DreamSpark

Unlock powerful software tools for your success

Through our Software Access Portal, students, faculty, and staff can take advantage of free access to industry-leading platforms like VMware and Microsoft Azure Dev Tools for Teaching (formerly DreamSpark), tools used every day by tech professionals around the world.

Whether you're launching a research project, developing software, or diving into hands-on coursework, we've got you covered:

  • Faculty & Staff: Get access to both platforms for non-commercial use in teaching, research, and lab work.
  • Students: Especially those in Computer Science, can request access to support course assignments and faculty-led research. Just let us know what you need and how you’ll use it.

Access is requested each semester, and students are expected to remove the software when their course or project wraps up.

Start building with the same tools the pros use—and take your learning to the next level.
