IT desks in each of the University libraries offer

guidance on using your personal device on campus.

Bring along your mobile device and have one of our

team help you set it up to connect to University

systems and services.

The University is part of the eduroam wireless

network, along with many other UK and European

universities.

After initial setup, eduroam remembers who you are

- so you don’t have to log in each time you go online.
