The SEHD provisions a laptop or desktop for regular full-time employees.  Laptops are recommended for mobility and hybrid work possibilities.  All computers come with Office 365, Zoom, and other university software - including 1TB of personal storage on OneDrive.  

You may choose an Apple/Mac or a Dell/PC from the recommended configurations below.

Recommended (Sept. 2023) 


  • Apple MacBook Air - 15" Screen, M3 Processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage - with Warranty
  • Apple MacBook Air - 13" Screen, M3 Processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage - with Warranty
  • Apple MacBook Pro - 14" Screen, M3 Processor, 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage - with Warranty



The SEHD will cover the first $1800 which covers these configurations.  This funds the computer only.  If you require an extra monitor and/or a docking station or specialized software - these are extras that may be funded via program or professional development funds. 

If you prefer something more or different than these configurations, work with us to spec out the exact hardware/software you’d prefer and the funding mechanism for covering anything over $1800.  You are invited to browse the Apple/Dell stores and configure what you prefer - and send the details - or a link - to sehdhelp@ucdenver.edu




NOTE: not all devices on the public Apple/Dell stores are available to the university.Browse and pick what you wish, and we’ll check on availability and/or make recommendations.
