ICTS has been contracted by the Science Faculty to manage their four student computing labs. Gerhard Mohammed, the Lab Administrator, manages the labs and assists faculty staff in booking the lab for classes. Together with Assistant Lab Administrators, he assists students where necessary and ensures that they abide by the lab rules as set out in the General Rules and Polices handbook (page 56).
