First Steps

A guideline for using the FIM-IT-offers

On the FIM website, you will find offers in the IT services section, which are provided by the FIM system support. For a first overview we have prepared a flyer for beginners for download. For (international) master students we have prepared a short brochure which explains the basic features of using the FIM PC labs.

As a next step, we recommend to create your own FIM account, which forms the basis for using many FIM-IT-services.

Due to Corona contact restrictions, some of our offers, such as our student computer pools, are currently not accessible locally on campus. Therefore, learn about tools in the Remote Access section to access the LINUX computers of the FIM in a command-oriented way via SSH or in a graphics-oriented way with X2Go from home.
