Computer facilities

Access to the computers

In our faculty you will be able to have 24-hour access to the computer rooms with the help of a magnetic card which is provided to you at the time of registration at UCL.
There are four computer rooms accessible to all EPL students:
• CANDIX et DAO rooms Localisation: Vinci building, room a-169 (CANDIX), room a-182 (DAO)
The CANDIX and DAO rooms are open the working days from Monday 8 AM to Saturday 12 AM.
The CANDIX room is also open during the Weekend.
• TECHNIX et IAO rooms Localisation: Vinci building, room a-125 (TECHNIX), room a-178 (IAO)
The TECHNIX and IAO rooms are open day and night, W-E and public holidays included.
Each student has a personal and unique login and password to access the machines of the faculty.
Environment of work
Each computer can be booted up under LINUX or WINDOWS.
Once connected, you have a single working area on a server of the faculty, accessible with WINDOWS or LINUX, no matter the room.
Each student has a UCL e-mail with the format (firstname.lastname@student.uclouvain.be). The password of this e-mail is the same one as the password of your login. The detail of its use is described here. (in french)

A laser printer is accessible in the room a-182 (close to DAO room) only during business hours (8h15 AM- 6 H PM on weekdays).
