Employees are given the CampusCard for the whole duration of their employment. Students who are at the same time employed by the University of Lucerne receive both a student and an employee CampusCard.

Validity of Student CampusCard

So that the CampusCard becomes valid it must have the owner-specific data written on it at a validat-ing station (=validated). This procedure lasts a few seconds and must be repeated every semester after receipt of the registration confirmation.

Validity of Employee CampusCard

The validity of the CampusCard for employees is limited to the end of a calendar year. If the em-ployment is continued it can be revalidated at the start of the year at a validating station.

Validating Stations

The devices for validating the card can be found on the ground floor and the 1st basement of the main building (Frohburgstrasse 3)

Cashless payment

Students and employees can use the CampusCard as a payment method for printing and copying at Frohburgstrasse and at the Central and University Library at Sempacherstrasse. University members also have the option of using the CampusCard for meals in the cafeteria of the Lucerne School of Business (HSLU-W). The HSLU-W is located about four minutes on foot from the university at Zentralstrasse 9.

Library Card

The IDS barcode is printed on the CampusCard. This serves as a central university library user ID and must be registered at the information desk of the central university library. If you already have a central university library card you can add the IDS number of the CampusCard to your existing li-brary account at the library information desk.

Data Privacy and Security

At present only the corresponding card number (no matriculation or employee number) and few technical details are stored encrypted on the RFID chip. These are simply for identifying the card.
