Where to get help
The ServiceDesk portal at servicedesk.lshtm.ac.uk is your first point of contact for IT related issues. The portal is available 24/7 via the above URL using any internet browser.
You can find instructions for setting up e-mail on your phone, printing and a range of other services. You can find a shortcut icon to the ServiceDesk portal in the Application Window when logged in to a LSHTM managed desktop computer, or on the Virtual Student Hub.
The ServiceDesk portal is the most effective way for you to request services or report issues to IT Services. The forms you complete via ServiceDesk capture everything the support teams need to know to resolve your query and they go straight to the team responsible, though we are still contactable via phone for urgent requests.
There is also an IT Services Helpdesk that can be reached by email at servicedesk@lshtm.ac.uk.
