Features
Chat & Meetings
You can start a chat with an individual or a group, turn your chat into a voice or video call, even share your screen and meet. Chat history is retained for one year.
听
Calls
Make, receive, forward and transfer calls on your university workstation or mobile device. You can make and receive calls using a teams phone number (this requires a Telecom work order to activate).
Team Collaboration
A team is a group of people gathered to get something big done in your organization. Microsoft Teams is a place for teams to work together, share files and organize your work.
Teams are made up of channels, which are the conversations you have with your teammates. Each channel is dedicated to a specific topic, department or project.
Certain team names (like "Human Resources") have been reserved for official use. If you try to create a team and receive a message that "the name can't contain...," submit to request your team.
Course Collaboration
Instructors can use the Course Collaboration Tool to set up class teams for their courses. Class teams are automatically configured and shared with the students registered for that course.
