IT Requirements

You will need access to: 

• A computer (PC, laptop or Mac) operating on: 
  Windows 7 or later Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite) or later, preferably Mac OS 10.12 (Sierra)
  All our teaching materials are smartphone and tablet friendly. However, you’re likely to need a laptop or computer keyboard for completing the end of course assessment comfortably.  

MyAberdeen is compatible with all browsers except Internet Explorer. You can use:

• Google Chrome (recommended)
• Microsoft Edge (PC only)
• FireFox
• Safari

• For mobile
  MyAberdeen is also available as an app, called the Blackboard app. It allows you to access course essentials on smartphone and mobile devices.

• Reliable internet access with reasonable download speed. We broadly estimate at least 2Mbps so that you can benefit from the interactive one-to-one tutor time. 

• Speakers or headphones 
  A headset with built-in microphone and earphones is useful if you’re likely to study in an environment with background noise. 
   
• A webcam may be desirable for some interactive sessions.
