Ordering and Purchasing

Computers

Computers and laptop computers are available for institutional purchase, allowing staff and faculty to perform their work on GU-purchased equipment. All computers purchased with the University funds are the property of the University and must be in compliance with the standards set by the University Information Services.

Departments participating in the University’s computer replacement cycle program can order computers when eligible in the cycle (approximately every 4 years) to get new computers.

• New, tenure line faculty members are eligible for a new computer. Other faculty members, AAPs, and staff should contact UIS at 202-687-4949 or email computerpurchasehelp@georgetown.edu and a representative will be able to evaluate what equipment is necessary to meet your needs.
• Departments may purchase computers and other computer equipment outside of the computer replacement program.

The link that follows shows the latest university-approved standard computers for the current fiscal year, which can be requested by faculty and staff.
