LMAO User ID (LMAO Benutzerkennung)
Each LMAO member has their own LMAO user ID and email address.
Functions
Each member of the LMAO receives their own e-mail address via the LMAO user ID. A mailbox is also provided for students at the LRZ.
The LMAO user ID is also used to access many systems at the LMAO, e.g. in many degree programs for course registering, the online services of the student office, the LMAO portal and many other central IT offers.
With the LMAO user ID, you can also use the PCs in the university’s CIP pools as well as the LMAO wifi and eduroam worldwide.
Initial registration
In the LMAO portal you can find out how to start the initial registration.
There you will find instructions for
- Students
- Staff members, freelance and private lecturers
- Staff members of the Munich University Hospital
How to get a LMAO user ID?
With your enrollment, you will receive the welcome letter from the IT service desk, which already contains all the information you need to register your user account (temporary user ID, temporary password). Simply follow the steps on the form to activate your user account. If you do not (or no longer) have this information, please contact the LMAO IT service desk to activate your user account.
Please contact the LMAO IT service desk to request the necessary documents to activate your ID. These will be sent to you in electronic or printed form.
Prerequisite for obtaining an LMAO user ID is an existing ID in the clinics’ directory service.
In order to allow your data to be transmitted to us, you must release them for transmission under the hospital's IT portal (in German).
About 30 minutes after your data has been released, you can activate your user ID via the LMAO portal (in German) by completing the so-called initial registration.
Please use the user name of your user account at the clinic as a temporary start ID, supplemented by "@med.lmu.de", e.g. "[email protected]".
The so-called "external password" of the same account serves as a temporary password. If you do not (any longer) know this password, you can have it reset via the IT portal of the hospital.
Doctoral candidates (enrolled and unenrolled) and private lecturers who teach over a longer period of time can also receive an LMAO user ID. This requires confirmation from your institute of your activity (doctoral studies or teaching), which you can send to us using the Application for LMAO user ID form (in German) (PDF, 134 KB).
In order to renew an LMAO user ID, an association with the LMAO is mandatory. You can have this association confirmed using the Application for LMAO user ID extension (in German) (PDF, 134 KB) form.
The warning time to deactivate the LMAO user ID is 3 months, which should give enough time to establish a new email address.
