We take this feedback very seriously and are actively addressing the issue.
Email Security – Evaluation and Application of the SPF Policy
In this post of our email security series, we would like to inform you about an upcoming tightening of the SPF policy that will apply to RWTH Aachen University as of December 5, 2024.

RWTHmoodle – Find the Right Guide for You
The RWTHmoodle service is indispensable in everyday study life, both for students and lecturers. It is therefore particularly important for all those involved to ensure suitable access to detailed documentation.
With this in mind, our RWTHmoodle help has been comprehensively revised. Due to the large number of available instructions, it was often difficult in the past to quickly find the right documentation. To simplify this, we have developed a clearly structured and more user-friendly navigation that provides easy and targeted access to the desired Moodle help.
