Terms & Conditions
General UTools Terms & Conditions apply to this software license. If additional terms and conditions apply to this item, they will be listed below.
The Office of Information Technology (OIT) has partnered with MnSCU to offer a state-wide contract for the ESRI Geographic Information System (GIS) software, ArcInfo and ArcView. The statewide contract will allow all U of M campuses, extension offices, and research centers the option to participate in the contract, saving the University money. With this new contract, we were able to reduce the departmental cost from $4,500 to $3,000 per year.
Rationale
This software supports the University's mission of becoming a top three public research institution. GIS software is crucially important for conducting geospatial research. Currently at the University there are over 30 departments doing geospatial research. The US Department of Labor has identified geospatial technologies as one of the three most important high-growth industries in the 21st century. For more information, see Geospatial Science @ University of Minnesota.
Eligibility
University staff and faculty are able to purchase GIS software individually at a reduced price, or departments can purchase a license to have the software installed on all computers owned by the department. Students will receive the software for free if they are taking a course that requires it.
