Many programs that have gone through the IT100 process and been approved to install on LSU devices are available in the Software Center and do not require administrative rights to install (i.e., EndNote, SPSS Statistics, MATLAB, IBM Mainframe, etc.). 

If the program you are inquiring about is not available on Software Center or Tigerware, please submit an IT100 software acquisition request. An overview of the process can be found in the following article: LSU Overview: Process for Acquisition of Software and Digital Resources (IT100) for LSU A&M. The step-by-step process guide can be found here, and the acquisition request can be found here. After the IT100 has been approved, please submit a ticket to ITG with a copy of the certificate and ITG can assist you with installing and updating the software. 

Please use the following link to the ITS Phone Service Catalog, where you will find all of the relevant ticket request types for issues related to telephone service on campus. Submitting the proper type of ticket will help alleviate any delays in resolution.
