How do I get a RU account?
As a student, you receive a RU account automatically when you are enrolled in the Registration Office. When you start on a Basic Studies, you receive a piece of paper with your user name and an initial password, which must be changed in accordance with the instructions on the piece of paper.
Exchange students and students who start directly on a Master Degree programme should contact the Helpdesk secretariat in order to obtain the piece of paper with their user name and password.
For employees, the local IT-personnel or secretary should fill out a form with the following information (click here to reach the form):
At a minimum:
Full name, CPR-number and date of employment
Job title
Institute and/or subject
If available:
Preferences in relation to user name
Extension number
House number
Education level and research group (only for academic staff)
Note: A CPR-number should always be included. If there is no Danish CPR-number, the date of birth must be included instead.
When we have created the account we send back a mail and inform the local IT-personnel who are responsible for creating the new user on the local server.
When setting up a number of guest students, it is important to contact us in good time, preferably a week or more before the addresses are required.
