Virtual campus

Your virtual campus: everything for your programme in one place

Every Fungaris programme runs on a Moodle campus. It is where you join live sessions, catch up on recordings, study the materials and hand in your final project.

Why a campus alongside the live sessions

The heart of each programme is the live session with your professor and a small group of classmates. The campus is what holds everything together between sessions: it keeps the programme organised module by module, so you always know what comes next, what to read and what to submit.

Because it runs on Moodle, a widely used learning platform, it works in any modern browser and on the Moodle mobile app, with no special software to install.

What you will find inside

Campus questions

Can I use the campus on my phone?

Yes, through a mobile browser or the Moodle app. For writing your project and watching long recordings a computer is more comfortable.

I did not receive my access details. What should I do?

Check your spam folder first, then write to info@fungaris.institute with your name and programme.

How long do I keep access?

Admissions confirms the access period for your programme when you enrol. We recommend downloading any materials you want to keep.
