I don't use my University email

Your University Credentials are the key to off-campus access to the Strauss Health Sciences Library. While you don't need to use your University email for business, you do need to keep it "alive" for continued library access for as long as you hold your faculty appointment.

If you have never claimed or used your University email, you must first claim your University security account. Here is how to do it.

Visit https://myaccount.ucdenver.edu:

  1. Provide the 4 pieces of personal information that is requested on Step 1 of the process
  2. Click “Submit” to get to Step 2 and continue pacing through each of the 6 steps
  3. You will see your logon ID and email address on Step 6
  4. Step 6 will also have links you can click to get to certain resources to which you are provisioned.

Be sure to log off to close the session when you are finished.

The faculty email website is http://myemail.ucdenver.edu.

Still having problems?

It is possible that you may have auto-saved your previous login password in your Internet browser, which may prevent your updated password from working. This will have to be cleared.

If you have difficulties claiming your University email account, call the OIT Help Desk at 303-724-4357 (303-724-HELP).
