Classroom Facilities at Courant

Classroom and Conference Room Facilities

An overview of equipment available in classrooms and conference rooms in Warren Weaver Hall and at 60 5th Avenue can be found in the classroom calendar. Room reservations can be requested from the calendar as well. Capacities listed for each room in the calendar do no include the instructor/speaker.

With the exception of a few tutoring spaces, the rooms are all equipped with AV equipment that can be used for instruction, seminars and meetings. Some of the large classrooms have in-room computers and speech reinforcement systems, as do the large classrooms on the first floor and in the basement of 60 5th Ave. All classrooms and conference rooms have connectivity for laptops, speakers for program audio and either ceiling-mounted projectors and screens or large TVs for display. All classrooms have cameras and microphones for Zoom meetings, and conference rooms in WWH and some in 60 5th Ave are Zoom-ready with sound bars that have cameras, speakers and microphones built in. 

AV Equipment in Warren Weaver Hall and in CS and CDS Space at 60 5th Ave

The equipment in WWH and on floor 2-7 of 60 5th Ave is managed by Courant's IT staff. In-room computers are on the Courant network and require NYU credentials to access. For classroom and AV emergencies in Warren Weaver Hall or on floors 2-7 in 60 5th Ave, please call 212-998-3037 or send email to helpdesk@cims.nyu.edu. We also have a classroom help page with instructions on how to make use of the classrooms' equipment.

AV Equipment in classrooms on lower floors of 60 5th Ave

The equipment in the classrooms and conference rooms on the first and second floors and in the basement of 60 5th Ave are managed by NYU Campus Media Services, with the exception of basement conference room C15, which Courant IT manages. Each room has a computer, some of which are installed to do lecture capture using Zoom, as well as HDMI cables for connecting a laptop or tablet. Each room has a a portable Crestron tablet sitting on a charging stand on top of the lectern.  Normally, you would probably find the Crestron in sleep mode. You just need to tap it to get the options screen to appear and this allows you to choose whether to use the in-room computer or HDMI laptop connection. It also gives you options to increase, decrease or mute either speech or program audio. Please be sure that the Crestron is on the stand when you leave the room.  If you find the monitor powered off, you should find the power button on the left hand side of the back of the monitor.

The in-room computers are open access, so there is no need to login. They are re-imaged regularly, so if you copy files to work spaces on those computers, you cannot expect them to remain there from one class session to another. Therefore we recommend following Campus Media's advice and either use a laptop or keep your class presentation materials on a USB flash drive that you can take with you to class when you teach. Also, please note that when accessing your CIMS, NYU or outside accounts from those in room computers, you should make sure you are completely logged off those systems at the end of your class or meeting. Details regarding what each room has can be found on the campus media information pages.
