New Hire Information

Employee Number, UCInetID, and Email
Your UCInetID is your e-mail, internet and general key to online services at UCI. You will need your employee ID number to get a UCInetID. The department needs all of your employee paperwork in order to generate your employee number. Once you've submitted your employee paperwork and received your employee number, you will be able to activate your UCnetID. Once you have your UCInetID you can set up your email.

Temporary Internet Access
If you need Internet right away, you can create a guest account that will last for three days. Internet connections are set up with your UCInetID. Once you are connected to the Internet, please make sure that UCInet Mobile Access is at the top of your Wi-Fi list (this is how the computer knows to use UCI's Wi-Fi when you are on campus).
