Information for Students

General Information

If you are enrolled in a course that meets in the NCAT, the doors will automatically unlock at class time.

Anyone with a valid SLU ID card is welcome in the NCAT during open hours; you do not need to be enrolled in a course that is making use of the NCAT.

All other hours are reserved. Please plan accordingly.

The NCAT student staff maintain a HelpDesk in 003 during open hours. Because of the wide variety of activities and software supported, the person or persons on duty at any given time may or may not be able to assist you with highly specialized work. (You can find out which student employees have the needed expertise and when they work on the NCAT staff page.) Professional staff can provide assistance on a limited basis and by appointment only.

The NCAT lab is located on the lower level of the Noble Center, Room 003.

Facilities and Applications

The NCAT lab (NC 003) is the only NCAT space available for student use on a walk-in basis. A list of hours, applications and specialized hardware is available here.

Equipment

Headphones

Headphones may be checked out from the NCAT HelpDesk in NC 003 during open hours. The NCAT student employee will hold your SLU ID card as collateral. Please do not take headphones out of the NCAT. We cannot supply headphones for classes; each student is responsible for bringing his or her own headphones to class meetings.

Equipment for Loan

The NCAT has a variety of audio and camera equipment that can be checked out by students. Some items are reserved for students in specific courses. The NCAT does not have a recording studio.

Items may be checked out from the NCAT HelpDesk in NC 003 during open hours or by making special arrangements with NCAT staff.
