## Getting Started
|
|
Arriving at ETH can be a lot to take in within a short amount of time.
|
|
If you feel overwhelmed, don't stress it, many, if not most, people feel that way.
|
|
|
|
To help you getting started at ETH more quickly, this website provides you with an overview of the things you can expect,
|
|
as well as bringing together resources for you in one place.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Material Access, Communication, etc
|
|
Not all ETH courses use the same platforms for communication, material access, etc.
|
|
|
|
All course materials are typically provided either via [Moodle](https://moodle-app2.let.ethz.ch) or the course's website.
|
|
|
|
Hand-In for tasks in many cases is handled via Moodle, some courses use the [D-INFK GitLab](https://gitlab.inf.ethz.ch),
|
|
some courses taught by D-MATH use [SAM-UP](https://sam-up.math.ethz.ch) (Note that to access this platform, you need to either be at ETH physically (connected to the WiFi)
|
|
or connected via VPN) and others use different tools still (if they do, they will tell you).
|
|
|
|
For the VPN, WiFi and GitLab, there is a usage guide [here](./infra)
|
|
|
|
Links to the course materials can always also be found on [MyStudies](http://mystudies.ethz.ch).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## MyStudies
|
|
MyStudies is ETH's platform to manage your studies.
|
|
This includes signing up for courses, exams and more and can be accessed [here](https://www.lehrbetrieb.ethz.ch/myStudies/login.view).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Bachelor's Programme Structure
|
|
Most students need between six and seven semesters to finish their bachelor's degree, followed by a further four to five semesters for the master's degree.
|
|
For more information on the studies and things to keep in mind, see [here](./semester-planning).
