Software and support
Free Microsoft Office for your computer
As part of our Office 365 subscription, University of Brighton and BSMS taught students are entitled to download Microsoft Office ProPlus on up to five devices (Windows and Mac computers) plus any mobile devices for free.
Laptop loans
There are laptops available for loan from self-service lockers in various locations around the university.
Mobile support
We provide support for iOS devices predominantly within the university. We provide limited support for Android devices but are unable to provide support for other operating services (although our services may work with them).
This is because the majority of mobiles devices accessing university services use iOS and so our main focus of support is for these devices.
