Workstation PC
There are 3 different types of PC workstations for employees at Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences, you or your supervisor must decide.
1. The office workstation PC, not mobile. They have no administration rights on the device, their system administrator manages the software. You have access to the data infrastructure, with all the network drives you need.
2. a laptop with the so-called Windows Direct Access function. You use a mobile laptop, in the office with docking station, external monitor and keyboard. On the road you use the laptop natively. You have no administration rights on the device, your system administrator manages the installed software. You have access to the data infrastructure, with all the network drives you need. This works via a special kind of VPN connection. You then work remotely as if you were in the office. You can also work offline without Internet access, but then without access to the data infrastructure.
3. you use a service laptop, you have administrative rights on the device. Software installation, configuration and maintenance are done by you. You do not have access to the university's data infrastructure with this device. You will need the cloud services for this.
Your supervisor should coordinate with you before you start work and initiate the procurement and provision of a workstation PC/laptop at the procurement office in conjunction with the system administrator.
