Umeå School of Architecture's facilities (Östra strandgatan 30c) are fully open Monday - Friday, 07.30 - 17.00.
As a student, you can access the facilities Monday - Sunday, 06.00 - 23.59. Use your Umu-card and PIN-code to enter the building. To exit when the school is locked, use the key button located next to the doors. Do not use the green emergency handles, they are intended for emergencies only and will cause an alarm to go off! During the closed night-time hours, security will ask anyone present in the building to leave until facilities are open.
Students and employees who are admitted or employed will automatically receive an e-mail about how to apply for the UmU card. As a new student at Umeå University, you need to activate your user account before you can get the UmU card.
An e-mail with instructions on how to obtain the card will be sent to your student e-mail account (xxx@student.umu.se), which you can access by signing in to the right on the page www.student.umu.se/english (or at the tab E-post in Portalen).
If you already have a UmU card it will automatically be updated with new access when you get registered on your courses. If the date on your card has expired there's a machine outside HumLab X next to Bildmuseet with which you can print a new date on your card after you have been registered. This can also be done at Infocenter in Universum.
If your UmU card is not working, please contact Kent Brodin.
If you would experience any issues with the building, please contact our technical staff.

The doors to the workshop are open 07.45 - 17.30. At other times during student access hours to the building you will need your UmU card and PIN-code to access the workshop. Machines can be used 08.00 - 17.00. The power to the machines is cut off during the remaining time. You can still operate hand tools and smaller machines during all student opening hours (220V outlets).
All new students need to get an introduction on how to use the machines before they can start to use the workshop. Classes to get the workshop license are held for new students in the beginning of the fall semester. Please contact your year responsible if you don't have a license.
Never work alone in the workshop!
