Booking for courses

The PC pools can be booked directly via C@MPUS. If it is a normal course, please ask your responsible timetable officer to create a course in C @ MPUS and to request an appointment for a PC pool. This is the only way to ensure that the dates appear in the students' timetable. If it is a special event, please book the room via C @ MPUS and use the following instructions: TIK PC-Pools buchen.

After you have created the room request via C @ MPUS, please send an email with the hardware and software requirements for your course no later than 4 weeks before the respective course to support@stud.uni-stuttgart.de. If requests are received later, we cannot guarantee that the software requirements can be implemented in time for the start of the course. Please note that the virtual desktops in the PC pools are usually only equipped as follows: 2-3 CPU cores, 8 GB RAM. If your software has significantly higher requirements, please contact us in good time.

Frequently asked questions

How do I log on to the pool computers?

Registration at the pool computers is only possible for students of the Universität Stuttgart.

To register on the pool computers, proceed as follows:

Switch on the computer
Enter short student user ID (st123456)
Enter corresponding password

Employees receive a special login when booking the room in order to use the computers for events.

I don't have a student account. Is it possible to log on to the pool computers as a guest?

No, it is not possible to register as a guest at the pool computers, as registration is only possible with a student account of the Universität Stuttgart.

An account for using the pool, e.g. for lectures, can be applied for by employees of the Universität Stuttgart.

The login to one of the pool computers fails, what can I do about it?

A registration is only possible with a student account!

If your registration with your student account fails, first check your password by logging in with your account on one of the university websites. If the password works, try another computer in the pool. If the problem occurs again, please come to an office of the user advisory service.

The printer in the PC pool does not work, who can I contact?

Since the equipment is leased, an external company is responsible for supporting the printers. A telephone number and e-mail address can be found on each device.

If the toner is empty or if there is a major defect, the company is automatically notified and takes care of the maintenance in a timely manner.

I have found lost property in one of the PC pools, where can I return it?

Lost property is only accepted and managed by the lost property office of the property management. How to get there is described on the building management page.
