Microsoft Campus Agreement


The University of Delaware has signed an agreement with Microsoft to give departments and institutional users fast and easy access to the most current enterprise software from Microsoft.

The Microsoft Campus Agreement entitles all departments—and every faculty and staff member—to licenses for the Windows Vista Enterprise or Windows 7 operating system upgrade, Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007, Microsoft Office for Mac 2008, and the entire Microsoft Enterprise CAL Suite, which affords client access licensing (CAL) for connection to Microsoft's most popular server products such as Windows Server, Exchange Server, SharePoint Server, and others. These products are to be installed on University-owned computers for institutional use only. However, a "work-at-home" provision for installation on a personal computer used for work-related purposes only is permitted.

The software included in the agreement consists of the following:

  1. Windows 7 Enterprise Upgrade
  2. Windows Vista Enterprise Upgrade
  3. Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 and Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac
  4. Microsoft Enterprise CAL Suite, which includes:

NOTE
This agreement also includes the option of installing a downgrade version (i.e., a previous version) in place of the current licensed version of a software title. For example, you may choose to install the Windows XP Professional operating system instead of the Windows Vista Enterprise operating system.
