My project is related to the wireless control with using Raspberry Pi, so connecting Wifi in university is an important step in my project. It is easy to connect my Pi to normal Wifi because I know the name of Wifi, so I only need to provide the password. However, the Wifi is a little different in the university because I not only need to provide the password but also need to provide the account.
Therefore, I decide to use WiFi Config (Figure 1) in desktop to connect the Wifi.

Next, download the certificate from the university website and save it in the desktop. Then copy it to the file /etc/wpa_supplicant, but you cannot use right click to copy if you don't log in as root, so I suggest use "sudo" command.
Therefore, I can connect the WiFi to the wireless network in the university, if you cannot, try to reboot it.
$ sudo cp /home/pi/the_name_of_certificate /etc/wpa_supplicant
And then open the WiFi Config in the desktop and set it using the same way in website of university.
