All Enrolled Students are granted access to the Virtualized Software and Virtual Desktops via Citrix application.
What is Citrix?
Citrix is a server-based software delivery environment that allows users to access computer programs without the need of installing them on a local hard drive.
A list of available applications on the Virtual Desktops can be found in the Deployed Software section.
