Quick-Guide for BE-Students
The login required for most services is your WU identification consisting of h+student ID number (matriculation/registration number) + password.
ATTENTION:
You need a separate password for the WU-WiFi (wu and/or eduroam). You can set this via the WU Controlpanel. In order to use MS Teams, it is also necessary to accept WU's terms of use in the Controlpanel.

Since switching to CANVAS WU, WU also has its own video portal. Videos that are required for submission in CANVAS WU are uploaded there. These can then be embedded and submitted directly in CANVAS WU using a plug-in..
Learning and Information Portal LEARN
LEARN@WU was the learning and information portal for WU students before switching to CANVAS WU. When it comes to content of expiring courses or functions that have not yet been integrated you may need to continue using LEARN@WU. In this case, please use the following links:
