You will be given two user accounts; one for your office computer/email and one for the University portal. Each account requires a user name and a password, but the user name for both accounts is the same. You are given a temporary password to login initially to your computer which you must change upon logging in. Changing the password to your computer will also change the password to your email account.

Once you get to campus, OTM provides standardized, fully-configured Windows compute to every full time faculty and staff member. We provide current hardware and software as part of this package.
