Access
The School of Architecture is open Monday - Friday, 07.30 -
17.00.
At other times you will need to 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!
How can I get the UmU card?
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're continuing your studies
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.
