Access virtual labs and software through MSU Virtual Desktop

The MSU Virtual Desktop service gives authorized students, faculty, and staff access to licensed university software and applications through an online portal at desktop.msu.edu. The service supports all devices including Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android.

Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) technology delivers a desktop image (icons, folders, toolbars, software, etc.) to an authenticated user remotely over a network. This approach allows people to interact with their desktop as if the applications and data were stored locally on their device.
