All students of Göttingen University and owners of a GWDG account are allowed to use the computer based work stations. As a matter of course, using the computers at the LRC (except for printing) is for free.

For logging in to the computers you need an account. Students at Göttingen University receive their account together with their student ID at the beginning of their studies. Owners of a GWDG account are also able to log in to the computers. With these accounts it is possible to use the Wi-Fi (eduroam) at the University Medical School as well.

studIT is the IT service provider for students at Göttingen University. On working days our advisors from studIT are working six hours a day (except on Monday).

All Drucker available at the LRC are connected automatically to the computers. You only have to choose the right printing queue (e.g. A4 b&w or colour). After logging in to the computer you can see your current print contingent on the screen. You can top up your print contingent at the chip card issue point in the main lecture hall building by paying with your student ID. Print contingent of the GWDG accounts will be balanced by the respective institute.

All computers at the LRC Med are Windows computers. On all PCs Microsoft Office is installed by default.
