Software Licensing and Distribution provides services associated with the establishment and retention of software agreements between Purdue University and software vendors, and the distribution of the resulting licensed software under the terms of these agreements.
Purdue IT Software Licensing and Distribution recently partnered with Purdue’s Community Hub to offer a more convenient way to obtain software. Many of our software products are now available for immediate download through the Software Download Storefront on Community Hub at
https://communityhub.purdue.edu/storefront.
After logging into the Storefront, users will only see the software they are eligible to obtain. For details on a particular software's availability, the product pages are still available with licensing information.
We will continue to transition the remainder of our products to Community Hub over the coming months.
Purdue University offers several popular software packages to individuals, departments, and colleges at the University. Availability restrictions, versions offered, distribution means, and cost of software result from the agreement details between Purdue University and the specific software vendor. Please see the appropriate link below for details on the software available:
Software for Students on personally-owned machines
Software for Departmental or College use on University-owned machines
For questions regarding the software available, please contact the Service Desk.
