IT Services provide affiliate accounts for a specific purpose and duration. An affiliate is defined as a person working for, or on behalf of, the University who will not be given a staff number and who is not paid directly by the University, but requires access to Library & IT services. An affiliate account can be requested for a maximum of 12 months. 

    Requesting the service:

    • University Staff should not apply for affiliate accounts, as this bypasses HR processes and results in delays/duplication. New staff will automatically receive an account as part of the onboarding process.
    • If you require an affiliate account, please complete this form: Affiliate Account Form | IT Services
    Accounts and Access
    Refer to Support Contact information below.
    This Service is available to all authorised users on a daily 24 hour basis.
    This Service is supported from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, with the exception of Public Holidays.

    If an affiliate later becomes a staff member of the university, or vice versa, a new account will be issued accordingly. For guidance on moving from one account type to another, see the following URL: Guidance on moving from one MU account type to another
