Obtaining your account details

All new undergraduates, taught graduates and research graduates are centrally registered by the University Administration.
As part of this registration procedure you are automatically registered for IT facilities and your username and initial password will be emailed to you.
Staff
If you are a new member of staff, you can obtain an account by contacting either:
