Using Chalmers new cloud-based service, you will be able to run nearly all Chalmers software on your own computer.
Starting in study period 1, autumn 2025, Chalmers will launch the "Virtual StuDAT" service. Via this service, you as a student will be able to run Chalmers software directly on your own computer.
Using Virtual StuDAT is easy. Whenever you need a piece of software, you install it directly from the cloud and run it on a computer of choice, e.g. your own. Should you need the software again at a later time, you just reinstall it.
During spring 2025, initial tests will be performed, where selected courses and halls are included. Starting in study period 1, autumn semester 2025, Virtual StuDAT will be available for all students. Initially, a smaller selection of software will be available. Gradually, during autumn 2025, the selection will grow. Eventually, the service will be able to offer nearly all software currently available for educational use.
Further info will follow on this page, and in Canvas, as autumn 2025 approaches.
