If it's not installed or to install for your personal Mac or PC, follow the instructions below. If you have a university-provided computer, Google Drive should already be installed. With Google Drive, your files are stored on the cloud instead of your computer and any changes you make are automatically synchronized with the cloud for quick easy access from any device that supports Google Drive (including mobile phones, tablets, other computers, or the web). With Google Drive, you can access files in your both own Drive and Shared Drives.

Google Drive is an application that allows you to access all of your Google Drive files on demand, directly from your computer without having to synchronize your entire drive or shared drive (saving storage space on your device).
