Atenea is the virtual learning environment of the UPC to support face-to-face teaching. It allows accessing all the course materials, delivering work, checking your grades and communicating with the teacher and the other students.
You will receive an email within the first days of your stay with your credentials. With these, you will be able to access Atenea. All the required steps will be specified in the email. The usual structure of the username is name.surname.
Atenea website: https://atenea.upc.edu
You can access your email through most email service platforms. To enter, you first start by typing your UPC email address. Then the platform will automatically redirect you to the UPC authentication system in which you have to put your UPC credentials. After authenticating, the platform will present you with your UPC email inbox.
The UPC recently adopted the use of electronic UPC cards. You can get your UPC student's card on your phone. Here it is explained how you can achieve this. The website is in Catalan, you can use the google translate extension for chrome to translate it.
You can use the card for borrowing documents in the UPC libraries, accessing some UPC libraries that need students to authenticate and to get discounts on culture and many more.
There is a photocopier in front of the Academic Office and another one in front of the library in the first floor. You can send documents to the printer from any of the computers at the school. The printer will ask you for identification (you can identify with your credentials or with your student card), and then you will be asked to choose the documents you want to print. The printer requires credit to work, and it can be purchased at ETSEIB (the building in front of FME). You will find more information in the link below.
This page is currently only available in Catalan and Spanish. You can open it with Google Chrome and get a translated version of it by using the Google Translator extension.
