Getting a UCSD E-mail Address
|
|
| |
|
Summary: UCSD provides an e-mail address for faculty, staff and students, as well as many affiliates. Your affiliation and department define the type of e-mail account and support services available to you. |
|
Faculty and staff: You may receive e-mail service from your own department or centrally from Administrative Computing & Telecommunications (ACT). Contact your supervisor, system administrator, or IT support person for information on the services from your department.
If your department uses the central e-mail services provided by ACT, see how to open an account:
- In many departments, the system administrator creates e-mail accounts. Please see that person first if your department has such a contact.
- If your department doesn't have a designated person to assist you with a new e-mail account, and you are a staff member, postdoc, research staff or faculty member with a UCSD, SIO, UCSD Medical School, or UCSD Medical Center ID, you can obtain an e-mail account at the combined ACMS/ ACT Help Desk during business hours (see location below). Bring your UCSD ID card. If you don't have one, bring your driver's license and a letter on university letterhead from your department, confirming your position and/or affiliation.
Students: All undergraduate students and some graduate students receive e-mail service through ACMS.
Alumni and retirees: Alumni Association, Retirement Association, and Emeriti Association members can maintain a UCSD e-mail address. Please contact the Alumni Association or the Retirement Resource Center for more information.
