Every faculty member should have a University issued email address (name.#@osu.edu), an OSUMC email address (firstname.lastname@osumc.edu), and a MedCenter ID.

To streamline your OSU communications, we recommend going to my.osu.edu and forwarding your University email to your Med Center email address. Every 100 days, you will be required to change your Med Center password at my.osu.edu.
