Student Guide: Virtual Desktop Service

The Off Campus Applications Service allows users off campus access to a wide range of applications on the LJMU network.

What is the Virtual Desktop?

The Virtual Desktop is available to all students and allows secure access to a virtual LJMU desktop at anytime from anywhere in the world.

Virtual Desktop is powered by Microsoft Azure Cloud technology and once you're connected works in the same way as any desktop on your desk or in our Libraries. You should be able to access all the applications and programs you require but for a full list of applications please see below.

Please consider that Virtual Desktop is still in development but available as part of a Pilot to gain user feedback. If you experience any issues with Virtual Desktop, please don’t contact IT support simply report a fault to raise an incident.

Please note:  In order to use this service you will need to have registered for Multifactor Authentication. See further information on MFA including how to register.
