Material loans

The IDCS partner laboratory like CPHT and CMLS provides workstation equipment (1) that meet IT laboratory needs and security criteria of CNRS and École polytechnique for all its staff who would not be equipped with professional computer equipment.

  1. e.g. a 13-inch MacBook Air model with docking station and screen

If you are in this case, we strongly encourage you to borrow this material instead of your personal computer to access the IT resources of the laboratory and the School.

Note

We ask team managers to notify us at least 2 months before the arrival of their new staff.

We ask that you first complete and sign the loan agreement with your manager and return it to us by email or to our office. Secondly, and depending on the material available, we will get back to you, to provide you with the equipment, configure it and possibly explain how it works as well as access to the laboratory's computer resources (VPN, SSH access, messaging, etc.).

Material returns

At the end of your contract or internship, or in the event of your departure, you must return the borrowed equipment to the IT department office of your laboratory, in a clean and tidy condition and in the presence of your supervisor or manager.

Warning

The equipment must be returned to the laboratory in a clean condition as soon as it is made available to you (e.g. at the end of your contract) and in the presence of your manager.

Laboratory equipment is inventoried and equipped with an anti-theft plate StopTrack.

Material damaged

In the event of hardware problems, or damage to equipment for any reason whatsoever, you must inform the IDCS partner laboratory's IT department as soon as possible.
