Accessing College ICT Systems

Our cross-campus ICT Help service is here to help with any computer-related queries

Username and Password

As a student of Dundee and Angus College you are automatically provided with a College username. Your username will be a 7 digit number, followed by @dundeeandangus.ac.uk for example 1234567@dundeeandangus.ac.uk. This may also be referred to as your student ID number.

As part of the registration process a password will be created and emailed to you. If desired this password can be changed to something easier to remember.

You can reset your password by visiting Office.com from a computer or other device, click Sign-in, type in your Email address and click Forgotten my password option and the process will walk you through a password reset. If you are not sure how to do this, watch the short video below.

Remember to change your password regularly and keep it safe. Do not disclose your password to anybody else. If you have forgotten your password and are unable to reset it using the option above please email icthelp@dundeeandangus.ac.uk

 

Multi Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) has now been added to the College’s network to make it more secure. When you first log into the network you will be prompted to set this up. To find out how to do this, watch the short videos below. You can choose to set this up using your mobile phone or by using the Microsoft Authenticator App.

     

If you change your secondary device or need help with resetting your MFA account, please contact icthelp@dundeeandangus.ac.uk
