KTH Program Distribution





Welcome to KTH Program Distribution (previously KTHCD)

KTH ProgDist gives you, as a student at KTH(*), the opportunity to download software to be used on your own computer in connection to your studies. This does not include employees, PhD-students and researchers.

This is a complement to the computer lab rooms you have access to in your education at KTH.

What you get access to through KTH ProgDist is software licensed by KTH, links to recommended free and shareware programs and eventually handled offerings to you as a KTH student to buy software privately at benificial prices.


(*) THS connected students as well as non THS connected students with certificate from the course management.

Rules for KTH Program Distribution

The "Rules for computer, network and system facilities" ( pdf ) that you have signed when you got your computer account applies.

The software is avaliable for personal use and is to be uninstalled when you're not an active student at KTH anymore.

KTH's licenses are education licenses and are not to be used for commercial purposes or for installation on company computers. As for the shareware programs where KTH have not financed a site license, the continous user is to pay the license fee personally.

Access to software

In order to download software from KTH ProgDist you have to login with your kth.se account and password. Please note that you have to begin your username input with "UG\" as in "UG\username". All downloads are logged for license and statistical purposes.

When you log in you agree to the rules above.

A current list of available software can be found here.

As a complement, some software is available for loan from KTHB. More information here.
