Visitor Access

Visitor Access is provided to people who are not paid by the University's HR department, but who have a defined relationship with the University. This includes visiting academics, contractors (professional and trade), researchers and volunteers.

It provides access to online services, desktop computers, files and printers. Visiting academics, contractors and researchers may be eligible for library access.

Information about connecting personal computers to the University network is available at Personal Computer Network Access.
