To activate the THL-IT account, you have to log in to HIS online portal (QIS): https://qis.th-luebeck.de/.
There you also set your personal password. Please do not forget it!

Email (Exchange account)

With your enrollment, you will automatically get a personal e-mail address. It is easy to memorize, as it is composed like firstname.lastname@stud.th-luebeck.de.

Impor­tant

You should also use this email address to contact professors or other university employees. In this way, they can easily see that your e-mail is a serious request and no SPAM.

THL-WLan

All students and employees of the TH Lübeck can use mobile internet via the THL-Wlan network.

eduroam

Eduroam is another network shared by many universities, allowing you to use Wi-Fi at other universities as well. You should definitely configure it on your devices, as you can also use Wi-Fi at other universities. If you already have an eduroam account (e.g. because you already studied in your home country at a university that also offers eduroam), you can also use these access data.

SSL-Gateway

There are some IT services that you can only use within the THL network, e.g.:

• Access to your personal home directory,
• services of the Central University Library,
• use of the DIN standards and Statista, or
• Use of dictionaries and Duden.

Web­source

To get remote access (e.g. from home), you can use an encrypted connection via SSL gateway.

Network storage (Home directory)

You get a personal network storage (home directory) on which you can use 20 GB of storage space. Outside the THL you can use the SSL gateway to access it.
