Using university PowerPoint and Word templates in applications

You can now directly use the PowerPoint and Word templates of the university and faculties in applications on the university Windows and Mac computers. Please remember that the slide templates are intended for presentations. If you upload materials permanently online, please remember the accessibility requirements.

The templates are also still available in the Uni Material Bank. You can download them from your computer there if you are using your home computer.

For now, the templates can only be used in applications downloaded onto the computer, not in OWA via a browser.
