At IU, how can faculty request ArcGIS software for students?

The ESRI Software Promotion for GIS students is an instructional-use software program from the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) that allows Indiana University faculty on all campuses to request ArcGIS Desktop 9.x (ArcView) software for a class and obtain one copy per student. IU is eligible for this program through the ESRI Site License and Maintenance Agreement. Faculty must request software for students directly from ESRI, as UITS does not provide ArcGIS licenses to students.

To request the software, faculty can go to the ESRI Software Promotion for GIS students page.

For ESRI to verify eligibility, the free software must be shipped to a faculty member at a valid campus address where an ESRI educational-use site license exists. To avoid confusion and ensure prompt software shipment, list "Indiana University" as your university name without designating the campus location (e.g., do not use "Indiana University Southeast" as the university name).

When faculty use the ESRI Software Promotion for GIS Students, no data or direct technical support is provided to individual students from ESRI. Faculty must provide students with access to technical support relating to their courses. Also, campus bookstores may not distribute this software.

For information on how students, faculty, staff, and departments can purchase ArcGIS software, see At IU, how do I purchase ESRI software?
