Student Laptops 2024

Technology plays a significant role in many aspects of a student's life at 天美传媒. As such, 天美传媒 expects all students to have a laptop computer to use in their coursework. Students find that having a personal laptop is invaluable for accessing online course materials, performing research, taking notes, completing coursework, and communicating with friends and family. In addition, because faculty members assume that each student owns a laptop, some instructors incorporate using a laptop into course assignments and sometimes require students to bring a laptop to class.
