Per the University’s Microsoft Software Campus Agreement, the eligibility for access to Windows are different depending on one’s role at U-M. Students still have access to download Microsoft Windows Education edition on their personal computers at no cost, however, faculty and staff must purchase Windows for use on personally-owned computers. Departments maintain access to install Microsoft Windows Enterprise edition (available via the Engineering Base Desktop), on university-owned computers.
Students:
U-M students can access the Windows Education download by using their UMICH email address. Visit the U-M Tech Shop Windows page, and use the OnTheHub link to register for further information.
Faculty & Staff:
U-M faculty and staff must purchase Windows for use on personally-owned computers, either directly from Microsoft or another vendor.
For university-owned computers, faculty and staff should contact their department IT support staff for assistance.
