Computing Device Requirement and Software Incompatibility for SoNHS Programs

You will need to have a fully functioning laptop computer with either Microsoft or Apple operating systems and know how to use with Microsoft Word.

• Chrome books, I-Pads, Android devices, cell phones, and other personal devices that use smart technologies like a cell phone will not be able to complete all of the functions required for this program as these devices will not work fully with Canvas.
• Please make sure you have a functioning camera and microphone (do not rely on cell phone or tablet).

The UMKC RooTech program through the UMKC Bookstore offers a selection of hardware and software, financing options and services at educational prices. There is no required brand or model assuming they meet the minimum hardware standards below.

• Note that the Google Chromebook or other laptops running on Android operating systems do not meet specification.
• Laptops must support Windows, MacOS, or iOS.

If you are unsure regarding compatibility, please consult Information Services prior to purchasing a device. Please refer to this website for minimum hardware standards.
