Free Microsoft Software
What Microsoft software is available for free?
Most Microsoft software other than Microsoft Office is available to students for free through Campus’s Azure Dev Tools for Teaching subscription. This includes various Windows operating systems, Visual Studio, Visio, Project, and many more.
Can I get Microsoft Office for Free?
Microsoft Office is not included in Campus’s Azure Dev Tools for Teaching subscription. However, it is available for free to University of Utah students through the Microsoft Campus Agreement maintained by the Office of Software Licensing. See https://software.utah.edu/ for more information.
How do I access the free Microsoft software?
The free Microsoft software is accessed by creating an account associated with your u#######@umail.utah.edu email address on the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching portal, and then signing in to the portal with that account. From the portal you can download installers or ISO images for the various software packages and obtain license keys if they are required by the specific package.
Instructions for accessing the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching portal can be found at http://www.cade.utah.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Azure-Dev-Tools-for-Teaching.pdf.
Can I have more than one license for a free Microsoft software package?
The license keys provided on the Azure Dev Tools for Teaching portal are controlled by Microsoft, not by the CADE Lab. We have no ability to issue new keys through the Portal. If you need an additional key for a specific software package, visit the Engman Lab Help Desk (WEB L210b) and we may be able to provide one for you in person.
