Any person, who is not an employee or a student at the UiO or has otherwise obtained access to UiO resources through institutional agreements, can obtain access to UiO resources, e.g. the IT facilities, if this is important to UiO activity.
Access will be granted on the basis of UiO’s needs rather than an individual’s needs. The term “important” involves significant professional interpretation, and it is left to the highest professional authority of each unit (department heads at institutes and faculty divisions) to exercise their judgment in this or decide who should do so in each case.Examples of persons who can be affected by these rules are local IT personnel, persons who perform research or research services which are utilized daily by several of UiO’s employees, persons who teach a significant number of classes, for instance as main supervisor for a PhD student at UiO, or a person responsible for a series of courses or lectures.
Any person who seeks access to UiO’s resources should apply for this to the head of the appropriate department by using the attached form. The application should describe what services are sought (for example IT services) and for which period of time. The application should include justification for why such access is to be granted, the applicant’s full name, Norwegian national identity number and work address. By signing the application form the applicant consents to UiO processing his or her personal data.
The department head's evaluation and conclusion in relation to the above rules shall be kept as documentation at the institute/faculty department. If the application is granted, the institute or faculty division forwards a copy of the application to the Organization and Personnel Department (OPA) and to other agencies involved (e.g. the local IT officer). for registration in the UiO personnel database. UiO may retrieve lists of persons who have been granted access to UiO resources, for example as documentation for licensing.
Access to UiO’s IT services as an associated user will be granted for a period of up to one (1) year. Application form and relevant regulations are provided below
