Activation guide
You can, as employee, student or associate to Umeå University activate your Umu-id. The activation guide has instructions and helps you activate your account (and thereafter print out your newly created account information).
You can activate with help of a temporary identity that you should have received, or, as a student, with help of your https://www.universityadmissions.se/intl/start account.
Employees/Associates
With activation of your Umu-id, your AD-account is automatically activated with the same password as your Umu-id and your email address is created – normally in the syntax {firstname}.{lastname}@umu.se
Students
It is slightly different for students than for staff/associates. First of all, a student AD-account is activated automatically together with their Umu-id and password is intially set as the same for both accounts.
What is Umu-id and why do I need it?
/in Employee, English, Student, Umu-idAs a student or employee, you need an Umu-id to be able to log into most of the university’s systems and services, such as Canvas, Intranet and administrative systems.
- As a student, you will receive your Umu-id automatically when you are admitted to one of our courses.
- Employees receive your Umu-id when you are entered into the personnel system.
Your Umu-id consists of a username and a password. The username consists of 8 characters in a combination of letters and numbers. The letters are based on your first and last name while the numbers are a serial number.
Password to your UmU-id is something you set yourself. A password must be between 8-20 characters long and must contain 3 of the following 4 parameters: Capital letters, small letters, numbers, special characters (like * # ! & )
You use Umu-id to log in to most of the university’s central IT systems.
