Studio Culture and Materials
Computer Policy
All students in the School of Architecture and Built Environment are required to have a computer that meets the program-specific standards in this document. Please review these standards before making any purchases. Incoming students in several programs will be provided with a laptop during their first studio course. In some degree programs, there is a course fee that covers the purchase of a program-specific laptop, the 4-year service, and the accidental damage warranty. This purchase method ensures uniformity and the best price relative to the required performance specifications. In other degree programs, the minimum standards for laptops are based on the recommendations outlined for all students at Tulane University.
Camera Equipment
Tulane School of Architecture and Built Environment has two sets of camera equipment for school-related events, courses, studios, objects, organizations, publications, exhibits, or projects. Requests must be made at least 1 week in advance, but 2 weeks is preferred to coordinate scheduling and ensure the equipment is available. In general, we ask that equipment be kept on loan for 1 week or less. If more time is needed for longer-term projects, please indicate that in the Request Form here. In addition to filling out the Request Form, please email your request to Naomi King Englar, nking2@tulane.edu.
