Campus-Licensed Software

FAU provides access to a variety of software applications and licensing options for students, faculty, and staff. Some software is available at no cost, while other software may have eligibility restrictions, require approval, or have an associated cost.

Before you begin: Access to FAU-provided software depends on your current FAU status and the eligibility requirements for each product. Access to licensed software may be removed when you are no longer an active FAU student, faculty member, staff member, or employee.

The software below is available to eligible members of the FAU community. Availability varies by product and FAU role.

FAU provides browser-based access to supported virtual applications through Apporto. Apporto allows eligible users to access available software without installing the applications directly on their computer.

Apporto can be accessed from supported web browsers on PCs, Macs, tablets, and other compatible devices with an internet connection. Available applications may vary depending on how Apporto is accessed and the user's eligibility.

Good to know: Apporto may be accessed through the FAU Apporto web portal or through participating Canvas courses. The applications available through each method may differ.

For access instructions, file-management information, and troubleshooting, see Apporto.

Additional Software and Licensing Requests

OIT also manages software that may require approval, have limited availability, or have an associated licensing cost. Available software and licensing terms vary by product.
