Information for medical staff of the UK OWL

Welcome to

For licensing reasons, a decision is made between two service groups for the use of the IT services of the Bielefeld IT Service Centre (BITS) of Bielefeld University by employees at the supporting hospitals of the UK OWL.

The scope of the IT services depends largely on the affiliation to a university specialist clinic ("university clinic for an area of expertise"). The employees of these specialised clinics have access to a broad portfolio of services(LP 1).

Employees of specialist clinics that support teaching have access to a portfolio of services focussed on teaching(LP 2) if they are listed by name as teaching staff, instructors, lecturers in the electronic course catalogue (ekvv).

Employees of specialised clinics who are not involved in teaching cannot be granted access.

Service portfolio 1 (LP 1)

Dracoon is a cloud application for sharing data with high and very high protection requirements across organisational boundaries. Data can be shared or requested in a targeted and temporary manner. This makes it ideal for collaboration between clinics and research institutions at the university.

As one of the two central learning platforms, the learning room is available for use in courses. Basic functions such as document storage, a forum and a facility for submitting documents have been departmentalised in the learning space.

Moodle is a central learning platform at Bielefeld University and is available to teaching staff, instructors, lecturers and students for use in courses and study activities.

Panopto is a complete system for recording, editing, distributing, searching and effectively managing video content. With Panopto, videos can also be made available as live streams during recording. At Bielefeld University, Panopto is available to all employees and teaching staff, instructors, lecturers for creating and distributing video content.

The PEVZ (directory of staff and departments) can be used to search for and find people from Bielefeld University.

 

Medical staff receive access data (UniID and password) by email.

Login names can be viewed and passwords changed in the PRISMA portal.

Medical staff with the service portfolio 1 (LP 1) are authorised to use options for financing open access publication fees (e.g. the publication fund).

sciebo - a portmanteau of science and box - is a cloud storage service from and for universities in NRW that enables the storage, sharing and synchronisation of university-related data.

Medical staff at the UK OWL with the service portfolio 1 (LP 1) can use the extensive range of services offered by the university library. This includes, for example, access to the local print collection as well as to numerous knowledge platforms, databases and e-media recognised for medical research and teaching.

Internal university IT services and special library databases can be accessed via VPN access. This requires the Secure Client software from Cisco.

The use of the WLAN "eduroam" is available. This is not only available at Campus Bielefeld, but also at the hospital locations of the University Medical Center OWL as well as at various universities and locations in Germany and worldwide.

With Zoom, video conferences can be held via the cloud with many useful functions such as screen sharing, whiteboard and chat. Zoom's ease of use makes it ideal for organising webinars or group work in teaching and learning. The campus licence can be used via Bielefeld University.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

In principle, the teaching coordinators of the supporting hospitals are responsible for reporting requirements to the university. Therefore, please always contact the staff, people responsible for your hospital first. After successful registration, you will receive an automatic email with the access data and the steps required for activation.

All rights are always limited in time. This means that they will expire automatically at some point. Normally, you will not be informed of this as your teaching coordinator will have already applied to us to extend the rights for you.

If we automatically inform you that your rights will expire in 30 days, but you still need them, please contact your teaching coordinator in good time.
