Dear students,
On January 23, 2026, a security incident occurred in the TU network.
For security reasons, a comprehensive reset of all passwords is necessary. This will be carried out on the central systems on Friday, January 30, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to midnight, centrally by Campus IT.
IMPORTANT: Starting Saturday, January 31, 2026, at 12:00 a.m., you can reset all passwords for your TUaccounts.
* Students with ID Austria can perform this process themselves. Detailed instructions for changing your password can be found on the login portal https://login.tuwien.ac.at/, opens an external URL in a new window
* The following option is available to our international students: https://www.it.tuwien.ac.at/en/rights-and-roles/accounts-at-the-tuw/accounts-for-students/instructions-for-resetting-your-pw-for-students/remote-password-change, opens an external URL in a new window
If, for understandable reasons, you do not have access and miss deadlines, etc., we will definitely find a solution.
We will update the information here.
Thank you for your understanding!
