Access to UMA's facilities
Umeå School of Architecture's facilities are currently only open for employees and students, except during public events.
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 the alarm to go off. During the closed night-time hours, campus security officers will ask anyone present in the building to leave the premises.
If your UMU card is not working or you experience any issues related to access to the facilities, please contact our house technician Kent Brodin.
