MSOE offers free email service to its alumni. The university is upgrading alumni email accounts to Google. Features include extra storage space, access to Google Drive, and single login if you have other Google accounts. Hundreds of alumni have already moved their accounts over and found it easy to set up! If you are an alumnus and don't have an MSOE email account, you may also sign up for a new (free!) address.
Benefits include:
- An email address showing your affiliation with MSOE (@alumni.msoe.edu)
- Increased mailbox size to 25GB
- Access to Google Drive with Docs, Google Talk and Google Calendar
- All data is automatically backed up on Google’s servers
- Alumni may link existing Gmail accounts to their new account and login in with one password
- Google guarantees 99.9% uptime
- Access, edit and share emails, documents and calendars from anywhere, on almost any mobile device
- Emails from your old MSOE account may be forwarded to your new account
To upgrade your alumni email, simply visit this website and follow the three easy steps: https://gapps.msoe.edu/alumni/docs/
All alumni must upgrade their @msoe.edu email address by Feb. 1, 2013. Any alumni email address not updated by Feb. 1, 2013 will be deleted. Your email address will change to Your.Name@alumni.msoe.edu. This change does not affect current students (graduate and undergraduate), current faculty or current staff. Alumni do not need an existing @msoe.edu to sign up for the new account.
For any questions, please call MSOE’s Help Desk at (414) 277-7288.
