For personal computing equipment, CNS recommends students use a laptop/PC with the following minimum specifications:

  • Intel i5 processor, current generation
  • 8GB RAM
  • 256GB solid-state hard drive (SSD)
  • Camera/microphone

Most computers sold through Syracuse University's College Bookstore meet these specifications. For landscape architecture and engineering majors, we strongly encourage the purchase of a more robust system, as software for some courses is more hardware intensive.
