The Student Portal is the equivalent of an intranet for all students at the University of Gothenburg. Here you will find information and instructions on everything you need to manage your studies and university life.
The Student Portal is your intranet
In the Student Portal, you will find, among other things:
Information to help you manage your studies.
Information about exam rules, degrees, and other study regulations.
Support for everything from study techniques to how you can get help with your health and well-being during your studies.
Support for various systems and digital tools used during your studies.
Most of the information on the Student Portal applies to all students, but at the bottom of the pages, you will often find additional information where the faculty and department responsible for your education provide details specific to you.
There are several advantages to logging in to the Student Portal:
When you are logged in, additional information from the faculty or department that your course or programme belongs to is automatically displayed.
You can visit "My Page" to get an overview of information from your programme, including news, events, and links to pages with contact information.
Through "My Page," you can also see which faculties and departments are responsible for your education (both programmes and courses).
When you log in, you can visit My Page to access information and news relevant to you and your studies. We recommend checking My Page regularly to stay updated on what's happening.
On My page you can:
Find news, announcements, and events from the faculty and department you belong to, and (if you are a programme student) from the programme you are enrolled in.
See your educations, both current and previous courses and programmes.
For some educations, your reading list or syllabus are available directly on My page.
Fins direct links to current course rooms in Canvas. Even if you are admitted but not yet registered for a course, you can still find a direct link to Canvas’s open pages.
Find links to pages for faculties, departments, and programmes (if you are enrolled in a programme) in the Student Portal.
Many of the pages on the Student Portal consist of general information for all students, with additional information from your education at the bottom of the pages. This is because the faculties and departments are responsible for organising and running the University’s education. They handle tasks such as study administration and facilities.
To access information that is specific to you, the correct faculties and departments need to be selected. When you log in, this is automatically chosen based on what you are currently studying (your study participation), but you can also select it yourself under "Displaying information from" at the top of the page.
Faculty and department pages
Each faculty and department has its own page on the Student Portal. On these pages, you’ll find contact information for key functions and other information that is useful for you to know.
Programme pages
If you are enrolled in a programme, you will find specific information related to your programme studies on the programme’s own page.
On "My Page" under each programme, there is a direct link to your programme’s page. The programme page includes contact information for program coordinators, program syllabi, and links to important information here on the Student Portal.
Help with common problems
You are seeing additional information from the faculties and departments selected under "Displaying information from:" at the top of the page.
If you are logged in, this is based on your current study participation. By current study participation, we mean educations that have the status admitted or registered in Ladok.
If you see information from departments or faculties responsible for an education you are no longer studying at, it might be because you have unfinished studies in Ladok that you have not formally withdrawn from. If this information is no longer relevant to you, you need to withdraw from the education in Ladok.
If many different departments are selected when you are logged in, it's because you are enrolled in courses and/or programmes that are offered by various departments.
For students enrolled in a programme
It is very common for programme students to have multiple departments selected. While one department is always responsible for your programme, different departments may be responsible for the courses within the programme.
If you have questions related to the administration of your programme, you should refer to the information from your programme’s department. If you have questions related to the administration of your course, you should refer to the information from the course’s department.
The information about your current and past studies on My Page might differ from what you see in Ladok. We only retrieve certain information from Ladok, and it may take some time for the information to be updated.
If you want a complete overview of your studies, you should log in to Ladok.
There, you can also withdraw from older courses that you are registered for but have not completed. These courses will then no longer appear on My Page.
