Associate User Scheme

The Associate User Scheme allows people who have a genuine association with the University to use a range of University computing facilities (subject to successful registration). Examples of Associate Users could be visiting academics/students and individuals working on University projects.

University of Dundee matriculated students and members of staff do not need to apply for Associate User status as they will be issued an IT account when they are registered on the Student Management System or Personnel system as appropriate.

Please contact the ICS Service Desk for further guidance about eligibility and questions about joining the scheme.

We currently offer two types of account:

Departmental Accounts - £30
These provide a personalised email account and network login for use within that department. You may be given access to some University systems and departmental files where appropriate. This account is issued and supported by departmental IT support staff.
IT Suite Accounts - £30
These provide a personalised email account and access to ICS-managed IT Suites where an extensive range of software is available including Access, Excel, Internet Explorer, PaintShopPro, GroupWise mail, PowerPoint, Word and SPSS. This type of account is issued and supported by ICS.

All users of University of Dundee IT facilities, including Associate Users, are required to abide by the following policies:

Associate User accounts run for 12 months from August to July and cost £30 per annum. Mid year applications are welcome.
