Mac Virtualization

Several software applications used in ERAU courses are only available on Windows operating systems. Academic programs including (but not limited to) Engineering, Decision Sciences, and Technology Management require students to have access to a Windows machine.

If you are a Mac user, a solution to installing Windows-only software on your computer is to use virtualization. To do this, you must choose the appropriate virtualization option for your computer chip, and download and install Windows 10 or 11 in the virtualized environment. Depending on the chip hardware in your Mac, the supported operating system(s) and/or virtualization program may be different. View the Mac computers with Apple silicon support page if you are unsure which chip hardware you are using.

Note: Intell Processors will only be applicable if you have a Mac that was released in 2020/2021 or prior.
