How to start

  • 2. Activate your user account and MFA

    As a new student, you need to activate your user account (your Umu-id) approximately two weeks prior to the start of the semester.

    With your user account you can:

    • register for courses
    • access the internet in computer labs and the university's wireless network
    • submit assignments and verify your study results
    • access your student e-mail

    If you are a new student, you will automatically receive a user account when you are admitted, but you will need to activate it for it to function properly. You will not be able to activate it until approximately two weeks prior to the start of the semester.

    Install MFA for a more secure login
    To increase security and reduce the risk of unauthorised access to your information or account, students must enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) to log in to various systems, such as Canvas and the Student Web.

About the course

  • Allmän kursinformation

    Du kommer att genomföra studier både själv och som en del av en grupp. Du kommer att slutföra dina uppgifter, med hjälp av kursansvarig, litteratur, föreläsningar, seminarier och diskussioner med studiekamrater. Mycket inom kursen skapas kring deltagarnas aktiviteter där alla studenters tidigare erfarenheter och frågor är lika viktiga.

    Kommunikation mellan studenter och lärare kommer huvudsakligen att ske i klassrummet och genom kursens lärplattform. Det är viktigt att komma åt plattformen innan kursstart. Kursplattformen innehåller kursinformation, ytterligare litteratur och stöd i form av resurser och ibland förinspelade onlineföreläsningar.

    Läs kursplanen för kursinnehåll, förväntade studieresultat och examinationsformer.

  • Ytterligare information

    Kursplattformen hittar du i Canvas. Du behöver aktivera ditt Umu.id för att kunna logga in. Logga in senast sista registreringsdag.
