Wolfram Mathematica is a powerful computational software designed to support technical computing, mathematics, and data science. It provides a vast range of mathematical functions and algorithms, visualization capabilities, and programming tools. The software is widely used by students, faculty, and professionals in various fields, such as engineering, physics, finance, and more.

Wolfram Mathematica is now available for LSUS students, faculty, and staff as part of the LSUS SSO ecosystem. This integration makes it easier for LSUS community members to access and use the software for their academic and professional needs.

Instructions for Obtaining Wolfram Mathematica:

1. Visit the Wolfram Mathematica site information page at https://www.wolfram.com/siteinfo/.
2. Enter your LSUS email address, and then check the "I agree" box.
