Email and Calendaring

You get your email through Outlook 365, which is provided as part of Microsoft 365 for all students.  You can get Outlook in a variety of ways:

Where to get it

• Login to Outlook on the web
• Get the Outlook app from your Play Store or App Store
• Login to Office 365 and download the desktop app

Use your University username (format ab123456@student.reading.ac.uk) and password to login.

Security

Our systems stop thousands of scam emails and other malicious threats every day. However, some still get through so we have a cyber security section on our website devoted to staying safe when working and socialising online.

Support and trainig

Microsoft has a comprehensive support section on their website which will answer most questions and queries and you can find many topics covered on LinkedIn Learning. If you are still having problems, please contact the IT Service Desk.
