Online Study Tools

When studying at EIT, you will be required to access recordings, digital learning resources, complete online assessments and participate in virtual classroom discussions and collaboration.

Before you can begin your studies, it is vital to consider the technology needed in order to have a successful studying experience.

We recommend that you meet the technical requirements below when studying at EIT.

  • Operating system: Windows 10 or higher (Windows 11 recommended); or macOS 12.x or higher (recommended)
  • Storage: A minimum of 8GB memory (RAM), and a minimum of 50GB of spare solid state drive (SSD) space is recommended
  • Processor: 1.8Ghz or higher, 4 cores or higher
  • Internet access with at least 10Mbps download and upload speeds
  • A valid personal email address
  • Speakers and a microphone or headset (can be built-in)
  • A webcam that can recognize your face for invigilated (online) exams
  • Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) or similar software (e.g., Libre Office)

Note: An Android or iOS tablet can be used to join webinars, but a computer is preferable for some simulation software and for remote laboratory access.  A computer or laptop with webcam is essential for invigilated higher education examinations with EIT’s IRIS platform. The program software packages and setup details will be provided to students on the start date of the program. The software is included in your tuition fee.
