How to obtain an institutional e-mail
- An institutional user account by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Information and Technology Centre https://it.auth.gr/ in the form username@auth.gr is required to access the virtual learning environment (VLE), which will be used for this MSc program.
- All students, once successfully registered, need to create an institutional user account, following the process described at https://register.auth.gr/account/.
- The process should be completed promptly before the first week. During the first day of the week our staff will provide further support with registration, if needed. For students who already own an institutional user account, no further action is necessary.
- An institutional user account provides also access to other resources available from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, such as personal e-mail account, VPN service (access to a large number of medical journals) and free distribution of Microsoft software (Microsoft Windows and Office, Microsoft and Google cloud storage services with unrestricted storage capacity).
For a comprehensive list of services offered by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki along with specific guidance please click here: https://it.auth.gr/el/services.
- IMPORTANT: All communication via the VLE, such as e-mail notifications and alerts has to be handled through institutional e-mail accounts in the form of username@auth.gr. Students may opt to enable forwarding to their personal e-mail address. Detailed instructions can be found at https://it.auth.gr/faq/165.
- Once an institutional user account has been successfully created, students are prompted to access the VLE (Moodle platform), available at elearning.auth.gr. After logging in the VLE, students are requested to update their personal profile information. The MSc Secretariat will subsequently make sure to enroll students to modules subscribed.
