ILIAS Account for external Course Participants
External persons participating in courses of the University of Marburg can apply for an ILIAS account via their course instructor under certain conditions.
The scope of services includes only the login to the learning platform ILIAS, the use of the Windows PCs in the PC rooms and libraries, and WIFI access.
Target group
Access to regular course offerings:
- Students from other universities
- Pupils in "introductory courses [German]“
Access to special course offerings (only upon request):
- External course participants
Alternatively, see also: ILIAS-Support: Arbeitsgruppen mit externen Beteiligten [German].
Requirements
Application by the course instructor.
Former students or persons in final examinations are not granted access to regular courses. They must continue to enrol as students or apply as guest auditors in order to get access.
Application procedure
Your course instructor can apply for an ILIAS account for you as follows:
As a course instructor, please ask for ILIAS accounts via e-mail at ilias@uni-marburg.de. You will then receive an Excel spreadsheet in which you have to enter your own contact data as well as the names, dates of birth and e-mail addresses of the external participants who need an account. The date of birth is mandatory for later activation of the account.
The table is then processed by the University Computer Center and the link to the activation is sent to the participants by e-mail. Each participant receives a personal student account for one semester, but the scope of services is limited to ILIAS and PC-Pools.
Forms
You can make various changes yourself via web forms:
Support and help
Student assistants advise you on technical questions in the PC rooms and the University Library in the city, or at the IT-Servicedesk of the University Computer Center, see contact points.
You can reach the IT Service Desk by phone at the hotline +49 6421 28-28282, or by e-mail at helpdesk@hrz.uni-marburg.de. Please indicate your account and the subject in the subject line when making inquiries.
Worth knowing
Instead of a matriculation number, external students will receive a pseudo-matriculation number, which must also be entered when the user name is requested for the first time.
