When you set out to buy a study desk, you may consider going with the cheapest version first. Often, these cheaper versions are basic and offer you a suitable place for a laptop, books and study materials. The problem is, they don't have some of the enhancements or upgrades that can make your study time easier. Here are a few of the study desk upgrades every university student should have and what to know about each upgrade.

USB Charging Ports 

Nearly every device that you use likely has a USB charging option. Your phone, tablet and even some laptops have a USB charging port. When you begin using your devices during your study session, you will start to notice a buildup of cords and items getting in the way. Instead of running numerous power cords to the area, consider getting a study desk that has a built-in USB charging port station. Many desks have multiple charging ports that can allow you to charge up to six devices at once. This gives you the ability to use your devices during study sessions while they charge, and have a suitable all in one location for charging when you are done studying.

Attached Bookshelf

As a university student, you have at least one book for each class. In some cases, you may have multiple books for one class. You are probably keeping them in a bookshelf in another location of your room or home. This can become tedious when you have to get up continuously to get a book. Cut down your study time by getting a study desk with an attached bookshelf. This way you can keep all your books in the same spot you are using for study. This gives you easy access to the books and cuts down on having to get up and down during your study sessions.

Easy Assembly

One of the leading issues people have with their study desk is assembly. This applies to putting the desk together and taking it apart at the end of the university session. Look for a desk that is easy to assemble and take apart. This will help you reduce the chances of damaging the desk during the setup and breakdown processes. Easy assembly can also make the process of putting together or storing the desk quicker so that you can spend more time studying. 

When you are ready to buy your study desk, list the upgrades that would help enhance your study time. Begin looking for the desks you want and narrow them down based on your budget and the enhancements you need. Keep in mind; you are not limited to furniture stores or big box stores. You can also look to office supply stores for assistance and desk options.
