Overview
The Social Science Instructional Labs (SSIL) are Windows-based computer labs designed to assist students, staff, and faculty with innovative instructional technology applications in the social sciences. Our facilities include two instructional labs and an additional user lab with Windows workstations.
We specialize in providing the university community with access to Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and statistical modeling and analysis software packages. We also provide general GIS advising and assistance to the university community.
Our labs are available for instructional use, general use, and special workshop or training events.
Lab Hours
SSIL Labs are open Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.
SSIL is closed during UO Observed Holidays.
