Advantage of the login
You will probably very quickly encounter a Registration/Login screen (termed login in the following), which requests that you enter a user name and a password.

This hurdle may initially appear senseless, but we can provide a large number of advantages for you in this manner. The system always knows who you are. This means that you will be given your own personally adapted Start page in the system, on which only information relevant to you will be displayed:
- You see all the courses in which you are enrolled at a glance. It makes no difference what your function in the course is, i.e. whether you are only a participant, have tutor status or head the course as lecturer. Even if you only follow the courses online, you are always up to date and can immediately see on your start page in which courses something has changed.
- The registration ensures that no one will be able to misuse your good name, i.e. it ensures that documents or other contributions which bear your name actually originate from you.
- Stud.IP offers you some useful devices for everyday university life:
- It is possible to generate a schedule of your chosen courses automatically. Changes will immediately be registered. Besides, there is a time table which indicates all the dates/data of the courses you are participating in.
- In the system you can create your own personal homepage. There you are able to post your own picture or data (resume, hobbies etc.) if you wish.
As you can see, Stud.IP administers your personal data, which you only need to change on your personal homepage to post your current information.
