Campus information

To find your way around the TUT campus, please take a look at [1], there is also a map available there.

Access to TUT Study Information System

It is necessary to register to the courses given at TUT in TUT Study Information System (Õppeinfosüsteem, ÕIS for short). To access it you need to either

• Use your ID card or residence permit with a chip to log in at https://ois.ttu.ee
• If you do not have the chip card, you will need to go to the ÕIS admins in room SOC-132 to get a username and password.

Login to lab computers, submission of homeworks

To log in to labs and to submit homeworks in many courses you will need to know your Uni-ID. You are able to find it out and set a password at pass.ttu.ee by again using your ID card or residence permit with a chip. (You are also able to log into the lab computers with the chip card).

If you do not have the chip card, you will be able to find out your Uni-ID and set passwords in room ICT-410.

Timetables

It is possible to view the timetables by going to [2] and selecting "Timetables" from the left menu. Then look for your group (IVSM11, IVSM12, IVSM31, IVSM32).
