The student portal unique in Estonia was completed by the 100th anniversary of TalTech student body. This is a channel assembling all of the information a student needs to support studies – timetable, examination times, news and much more. The portal can also be used in the TalTech mobile application.
The portal student.taltech.ee has all of the information supporting studies at the university, and references to other systems and portals readily available. The information is personal and divided into blocks by subjects. The Uni-ID can be used to log in to the portal.
Calendar
The calendar shows weekly and monthly views. By default, the current day is displayed as first in the weekly view. The events displayed are filtered into different categories:
Timetable – if the subjects have been declared in the Study Information System (ÕIS), the student’s timetable is displayed in the calendar based on the declaration. Each event in the timetable is displayed together with the name of the subject, type (lecture, practice class, practice), subject code, time, room, address and location tag (opens the map when clicked). If no subjects have been declared in ÕIS, no timetable is displayed.
