You must have app. The mobile application provides on the go, mobile optimized access to Wikipedia articles. Obviously the Wikipedia should not be a basis of any academic research but it is a good starting point. By the way during my coursework you found it quite handy to find books from the referencing parts.

Dictionary.com (Free)

This is an invaluable application for students. Especially if your mother tongue is not English and time to time need help to find a right word for academic work.

This application also provides full access to Thesaurus, which is also extremely handy during your coursework and such. (Not to mention necessary paraphrasing.)
