Getting started at FHS: your first five steps

Welcome to the Faculty of Humanities! This guide walks you through everything you need to start studying. It takes about ten minutes — and if anything goes wrong, contact us, we are happy to help.

1. Activate your CAS account

The Central Authentication Service (CAS) account is your key to all university systems — SIS, Moodle, e-mail and Wi-Fi. You will receive your password when your student card is issued at a card issuing centre, or you can set it online at ldap.cuni.cz.

2. Create your JINONICE domain account

This account logs you into faculty computers and the student printer. Sign in at ldap.cuni.cz with your verified CAS password and set a JINONICE password under "Other accounts".

3. Set up your student e-mail

Student mailboxes run on Microsoft 365 at office365.cuni.cz. All official university messages go there — check it regularly or set up forwarding.

4. Connect to Eduroam Wi-Fi

Set your Eduroam password in CAS at ldap.cuni.cz, then connect with the username in the form yourpersonalnumber@cuni.cz. Eduroam works at universities worldwide.

5. Log into SIS and Moodle

Use SIS for course and exam registration and Moodle for course materials. Both use your CAS login.
