Welcome events for Spatial Planning with Sustainable Urban Design MSc students
Your first steps at University of Dundee: What to expect, and when
Welcome message
Welcome to DJCAD for Academic Year 2024/25! We look forward to welcoming you to your studies.
The information you will receive about your studies for the year ahead may seem overwhelming, but I urge you to give it close attention and if you are unsure about anything, please do come and speak to your Module Leads, Programme Directors, Advisor of Studies, and Administration team.
We have prepared Welcome events for you to take part in commencing from Monday 6 January and the details of these can be found below.
Matriculation (registration)
Matriculation is where you officially register as a student with the University of Dundee, to allow you to attend classes and access facilities such as the Library and My Dundee. You'll be asked to matriculate at the start of every academic year while you are a student.
- Before you start your course we will send an email to your student email address with a link to eVision.
- You will be asked to complete a series of steps to confirm some information we hold about you, or enter this information if it was not supplied in your application.
- Please also take a moment to make sure your address details are correct and up to date. Even if you are staying in temporary accommodation we will need local contact details - your address can be updated in eVision later if you move.
- You will also need to agree to the University’s Code of Conduct and Declaration.
- The final stage of the task will confirm you are a fully matriculated student with the University.
You will be able to check your matriculation status via the Student Profile tab.

Your student ID card
Have you uploaded your photo to eVision?
We will tell you how to collect your physical student ID card, which:
- verifies your status as a student of the University of Dundee
- provides access to the library and other buildings as required
- entitles you to a range of student discounts
Once you have received it, you should carry it with you and produce it on request at any time while you are on the University campuses. You should not let anyone else use it.
Student ID card collection
Once you have matriculated you can collect your student ID card from DJCAD reception.
Our reception is located on the ground floor of Matthew Building. The easiest way to get there is to use the main DJCAD entrance on Perth Road (which is number 45 on the campus map).
You need to matriculate before you can collect your card.
