Y-Number

To access Stud.IP, among other things, you need a y-number, which you will receive upon enrollment.

At the Gauss IT Center, the TU's computer center, introductory events are held regularly, especially in the first few weeks, with instructions on where and how to print, what free software you can get from the IT Center, and how to top up your print account.

In order to be able to take examinations after the end of the lecture period, you must register for your examinations in the TUconnect university portal during the examination registration period. You can find the current exam registration period on the pages of the Examination Office.

Important information and deadlines will be announced via the mailing list (see mailing list tab).
