CSS Facilities

Computing & Software System Labs

The Computing and Software Systems Program utilizes cutting edge technology and research tools as an integrated part of its curriculum. Enrolled students can access our CSS Windows and Linux Workstations during regular quarters. Lab hours are the same as building hours. Lab access for registered students begins on the first day or the quarter, and ends on the last day.  CSS students working with faculty research have the opportunity to access the Embedded Systems and Networking Lab, and the Center for Integrated Teaching, Learning & Scholarship.

To unlock the lab:

  1. Slide your UW ID card through the card reader next to the door (magnetic strip should be facing away from you).
  2. Listen for a click (the red light on card reader should blink)
  3. Pull open the door (NOTE: the door handle will not turn)

REPLACEMENT CARDS:  Replacement cards can be requested and are issued through the UWB Security Office.

If your card doesn't work...

Visit the CSS Program office in UW1 360 or email cssinfo@u.washington.edu

Students who register late for CSS classes may need to request to be added to the lab access list.
