Macquarie Undergraduate and Postgraduate Students

Currently two Usernames are in use to access the University's IT systems. They are:

  • Student ID Number
  • MQID

There is a progressive adoption of Student ID Number as the access to systems, replacing the use of MQID and providing consistent sign on

A key benefit from this will be the synchronisation of the password for all these systems.

A summary of the Username and Password that are needed for access to these systems is in the table below.
