The CS Undergraduate facilities consist of 12 computer labs, 7 project rooms, and a number of large informal learning spaces spread throughout the first three floors of the ICICS building. Computer labs are often booked for courses, but when they aren't, students are welcome to drop in.

Through electronic access control, all labs are open to all students 24/7 when not actively in use for scheduled lab sections, with one exception: ICCS X360, the HCI lab, is only accessible to students taking courses assigned to that lab.
