Upgrade for university-managed devices


Microsoft Windows 11 is the new and improved operating system that will be rolled out to university-managed laptops and desktops, including computer labs, from October 2024 onwards.

The current operating system, Windows 10, is approaching the end of its lifespan and will no longer be supported after October 2025.

Upgrading to the Windows 11 version will ensure users are supported with the latest features, security, and functionality to support collaborations, teaching and learning.

Key benefits include:

  • New interface – simple design and use
  • Improved performance - login experience, better MS Teams integration
  • Improved productivity - software request and management processes
  • Enhanced security – including encryption for both desktops & laptops, essential for protecting University sensitive data
  • Accessibility – new accessibility features
