Before requesting a UMIACS account, any prospective UMIACS account holder needs to have a UMD directory ID (and associated passphrase). Their UMIACS account will also use their directory passphrase for authentication once installed.
- TERPmail accounts are separate from UMD accounts - these accounts exist in perpetuity after a student graduates from UMD, but these accounts are not sufficient for holding UMIACS accounts.
Existing UMD students, faculty, and staff should already have directory IDs. For external collaborators, interns, visitors, etc., at other institutions or otherwise, faculty members will need to request affiliate appointments for them. An overview of the different types of affiliate appointments can be found here. To actually request an appointment, fill out this form and send it to umiacs-payroll@umiacs.umd.edu.
Once the person gets their appointment and thus their directory ID, they can fill out the UMIACS account request form (if new) or contact technical staff to get access to their existing UMIACS account again (if existing). If filling out the new UMIACS account request form, please let the person know they should use their directory ID as the requested UMIACS username.
