Accounts & Passwords

Microsoft Active Directory permits the University to centrally manage the accessibility of a variety of campus desktop and networked services.

Examples include access to the Drake University Wireless network, restricted Cowles Library services and selected computer labs.  In addition, University-owned Windows computers require the Active Directory username and password for a network login.

Active Directory usernames and passwords for faculty and staff joining the University are assigned in response to a request for an e-mail account. Please contact your departmental IT person or the HelpDesk for assistance.

A student Active Directory username is his or her MyDUSIS ID; the password is his or her original MyDUSIS pin number. These accounts are added following registration for classes.  For additional information, please contact the HelpDesk (x3001).
