It's Mathematica 8, plain and simple! As to functionality, there's no essential difference! (Except, as with the Student Edition, you might see something special on headers or footers of printed pages -- if that's even still the case with the Student Edition.) As to moving from the trial version to a regular licensed version from your University, presumably there's a site license administrator at your institution who can answer that question. Of, if not, phone or e-mail Wolfram Research.
