Your IT Account

In order to access University IT facilities (eg email and calendaring, personal and departmental filespace, printing, management information systems, etc) staff must first register for an IT account. New members of staff are invited to register online at the start of employment with the University.

On registration, you are allocated with a computer username (user ID) and are asked to create a password. You will use these to login to University of Aberdeen IT systems.

We encourage you to change your computing password at least once a year.

Your IT account has a default allocation of personal filespace on the University network - find out more on our Data Storage page.

If you require an additional IT account (eg for a project or conference) you can download the appropriate form from the IT Services website.
