Overview:
To support students in the online learning environment, ITS has worked with an outside vendor and college IT units to create a virtual lab platform called Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), formerly named Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD). Virtual desktops are a flexible, scalable alternative to the on-site computer classroom and help ensure continuity of the academic experience in a way that is likely familiar to many students.

Students can access virtual labs by logging into virtualapps.wvu.edu, or they can install Microsoft Remote Desktop for a more feature-rich experience.
