Courant Computer Accounts

Edit Body

Courant accounts are available to all faculty, researchers, administrative staff, and graduate students affiliated with CIMS, the Math and CS departments and the Center for Data Science to facilititate the work they do relative to their roles at the Institute, and are intended to be used solely by the persons to whom they are assigned, and are not to be shared with other people either within or unaffiliated with Courant. CIMS accounts can also be provided to collaborators, visitors, and students who would otherwise be ineligible (eg, from other departments) but are enrolled in Math, CS or DS graduate classes, certain undergraduate classes, or working with a member of Courant's faculty. All CIMS users are expected to abide by  New York University's  policies regarding network security and the use of technology resources. Furthermore, your CIMS account should not be used as a repository for personal files, such as pictures, music, and videos, nor should it be used to backup non-research related files from personal computers and laptops. Failure to abide by these policies may result in suspension of termination of your account.

While a CIMS account is independent of the standard NYU-Home account administered by NYU-IT, your CIMS account uses the NYU authentication system, so your NetID and NYU password is used to authenticate into Courant-specific resources.
