Mac is an increasingly popular platform for both students, and employees at UiO. We have approximately 2000 managed Macs in our system, in addition to a significant number of private student Macs.
With the new "M" processors, Macs offers unprecedented speed and battery time. The MacOS operating system has an easy to use graphical user interface built on a Unix-based kernel. This makes the Mac very well-suited for both regular desktop users, as well as advanced power users such as researchers and developers.
Macs are supported for all users at UiO. Employee devices must be enrolled and managed by UiO EMM/UEM management system.
