Looking for a place to practice a presentation or work with friends on a group project?

Information Services' Collaboration Center offers collaboration technology, flexible space and comfortable furniture for students to work in small groups or by themselves. The room also features new furniture and partitions on wheels to make the space easily reconfigurable.

One of the purposes of the Collaboration Center is to provide a place for people to try out different pieces of technology. Currently the center features three interactive Smart Boards for students, faculty, and staff to use, as well as three iMacs and two laptops to check out. We also have a LifeSize video conferencing unit which is capable of broadcasting in full high definition to other video conferencing units across the world.

The Collaboration Center is also available for reservation. We are capable of providing your class or group with a comfortable space and interactive, collaborative technology to maximize learning. Please feel free to e-mail us at mckenziecc@uoregon.edu or call us at (541) 346-4406 if you are interested in arranging a reservation or if you have any questions about our space.
