AUT inks Apple supply deal
Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and the Apple division of Renaissance -- an IT distributor -- have signed a supply agreement to provide students with access to the latest Macs. The new deal also includes other Apple services, such as installation and on-site service with IT support. AUT campuses currently boast a count of more than 500 Apple systems, most of which are used in the schools of Art and Design, Communication Studies, and Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences. Liz Gosling, AUT's IT services director, said the university is committed to providing students with the latest technologies to best prepare them for their professional lives, according to m-net. "Our partnership with Renaissance provides for the best level of equipment, support and training for our staff and students," Gosling added.
