About

Features

  • personal web space,

Your My Site is your personal space where you can create your own work environment and share with others in the University as you choose. Your My Site also provides direct access to other online web resources (E-mail, WebSurf, Moodle etc) without the need to login again or use VPN. 

Team sites allow groups of co-workers to obtain and manage collaborative workspace, and you can set up your own under your MySite. 

Schools, Institutes and Services can also run their own team sites to use as intranets or for various larger collaborations.
