Microsoft Developer Academic Alliance (MSDN) Software Center

MSDN SoftwareDid you know that as a Computer Science major (or a TCNJ student taking a Computer Science course) you can download and install a wide variety of free software from Microsoft on your own personal machine? It's true!

The MSDN software center that TCNJ has a license to includes Microsoft's operating systems (Windows Vista and XP), compilers (Visual Studio Pro and Visual Studio .NET Pro), databases (SQLServer, Access), some of the Office applications (Groove, Visio, Project, One Note), source code development tools (Visual SourceSafe and SharePoint), and other server applications (Project Server, SourceSafe Server, etc.)

If you are already familiar with the MSDN software center , you can find the software and key generation system on the ELMS website. Use your TCNJ email address to log into your account or recover your password via the ELMS website. All Computer Science majors have been pre-configured with an ELMS account. Minors and other students taking a CS course, need to request an account each semester through Dr. DePasquale (depasqua+aahelp [at] tcnj.edu) (subject to validation of your status).

Once you have your account on the ELMS system, you can download a wide variety of applications, burn them to CDROM or DVD for safekeeping, and install them to your personal PC. The ELMS system manages the installation key generation (the key you need to install the software) and provides the downloading framework for you to download the software.

Please be sure to take note of the following usage guidelines.

If you have questions about the system, be sure to talk to Dr. DePasquale.

Here's the latest listing of the software you can download immediately. Other software is available upon request through Dr. DePasquale. That is, not everything is enabled for quick download - only the most popular software is immediately available, however, other software is available as needed. From time to time, as Microsoft makes additional software available, we will add it to the MSDN archive and update the list below. Finally, be certain that you are familiar with the guidelines for usage of the software.
