Under the CRUI agreement, Politecnico di Torino allows all staff members to use the Office 365 suite.

The agreement enables users—via an email account within the @polito.it domain—to independently download and install the latest version of the MS Office package and other apps, including OneDrive with dedicated cloud storage space.

Tutti gli account nome.cognome@polito.it possono usufruire del pacchetto office effettuando il login alla pagina www.office.com. 

  1. Visit the Microsoft 365 Copilot site.
  2. Click “Sign in” and enter your institutional email in the format name.surname@polito.it.
  3. You will be redirected to the authentication site idp.polito.it. Complete the login using your institutional credentials.
  4. Browse the Microsoft 365 web apps: from the site you can access the online versions of the provided apps.
  5. Click the “Install apps” button to download the desktop/mobile apps for your device and operating system.
  6. After installing the apps on your device, activate them by signing in with your Politecnico credentials

 

  • Accept the Office 365 disclaimer from your personal page on the Teaching Portal (Portale della Didattica).
  • Wait 24 hours, then log in with your account (sxxxxxx@studenti.polito.it) at https://portal.office.com to download the software/products.

Access to Office 365 is restricted to users with an active relationship with Politecnico di Torino (employment contract, degree program enrollment, etc.). Once this status expires, YOU WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO ACCESS OFFICE 365, even if you still hold a University email account. You must back up your data before your account is deactivated.

Microsoft 365 can be used on all operating systems, both Windows and MacOS; an Internet connection is required for downloading, installing, and updating the various apps, as well as for synchronizing files on OneDrive. The web version can be used on all modern browsers, including IE11, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari. Office 365 can also be used on mobile devices (Apple, Android, Windows).
