Abstract
The Chemical Engineering department is seeking funds to upgrade the general area of computing resources for the current 98 graduate students. The Benson Hall Graduate Computer Lab machines have become technologically obsolete after seven years of continuous hardware and software support from the department. The requested funds will replace the computers with 9 Apple iMac computers dual booted with macOS and Windows 10, as well as equipped with high performing computing power. These requested replacement workstations provide graduate students with greater accessibility to the software required for their research and projects.
