  • course material and other relevant information from your teachers

  • hand-in assignments
  • any quizzes
  • get feedback and see assessments and results (the results should be regarded as preliminary and not as the examiner's grade decision)

Programme room in Canvas

When registered on a programme, you get access to a programme room in Canvas. You will get access to both programme rooms if you are registered on more than one programme. You will get access to the programme room after you have course registered for the first time. The programme room is closed and can only be accessed by students on the programme. The programme room collects:

  • programme-specific information that should only be available to the programme's students
  • links to the Student Web related to the programme studies
  • important deadlines and information sessions
  • files from the programme
  • communication between programme management and students
