Computer Center
A KU e-mail address for each student and member of staff, wireless internet access on campus, computer work stations in eight PC pools, a cloud for storing files on the KU’s servers, free software – all this and more is provided by the KU’s Data Center.
University user ID
Your university user ID gives you access to all of the KU’s online services, in particular KU.Campus (which is used to register for modules and courses), the ILIAS e-learning platform, and your e-mail account. You will also need your user ID to connect to the campus WiFi on your laptop.
Activating your user ID: For students, the user ID is printed on your student ID card along with an activation password. You must activate your account. When you do this you will be required to set a new password. You should not give this password to anyone under any circumstances.
KU e-mail address
All students are given an e-mail address in the following format: @ku.de (or a variant such as @ku.de if there is already another user with the same name). Official messages from the KU will be sent to this address. You must therefore check your inbox regularly. You can do this via webmail at mail.ku.de Alternatively, you can have your KU e-mails forwarded to another e-mail address.
