What Is the TUM User Name (TUM-Kennung)?

Every student, employee or guest of TUM gets a so called TUM user name (German: TUM-Kennung) from TUMonline. Its format is "ka21bab" (consonant, vocal, digit, digit, consonant, vocal, consonant). This loginname is - other than your e-mail-address joe.bloggs@mytum.de or joe.bloggs@tum.de - unchangeable.

You can find your own TUM user name:

in myTUM Portal under "Meine Einstellungen" --> "Personal Preferences"as "LRZ-Kennung".

The TUM user name is also known in some documents referenced as LRZ user name (LRZ-Kennung). TUM user name is still administrated by LRZ, but we felt that name TUM user name would lead to less confusion - in the long run.
