    Technology Resources for EMBA Students

    Nov 21, 2021

    Palisade Decision Tools - https://wikis.utexas.edu/display/MSBTech/Palisade+Decision+Tools

    • Windows only
    • Install Microsoft Office first
    • Mac users need a Windows VM (see below).

    Virtual Machine (VM) for Mac Users - https://wikis.utexas.edu/display/MSBTech/Installing+OVA+files+using+VirtualBox

    • Need ~ 30GB of free space. VM exists in one single file that can be deleted easily when you no longer need the VM.
    • Older Macs with 4GB of RAM will be very slow. Not recommended. If possible, upgrade RAM to 8 GB and the storage drive to a solid state drive.

    Office 365 Subscription (Microsoft Office for Mac and Windows) - https://office365.austin.utexas.edu/

    • Click "Office 365 Portal"
    • Students have 5 free device licenses to install/activate Office on personal computers and mobile devices.
    • Mac users can install it on the Mac side and then install Office on the Windows side (see VM link for more details)
