Thesis Accounts

Being a thesis student brings with it some special privileges. This includes being able to use the Banjo and Oud laboratory, having a larger portion of the available disk space than you would as an undergraduate, and you become a real person and not just a random set of letters and numbers! Yes, that's right. You can have your login changed from the standard combination of your name and random numbers to your name only (well, some variant of your name that makes it a unique login). For information on acceptable login names, please see:

To have your account set up as a thesis account you will need to either go to the Help Desk and ask for a thesis account application form or access it from the following webpage:

        http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~helpdesk/services/thesis_acc.html

Fill out this form, making sure that you answer ALL of the questions. Be sure to have your thesis supervisor sign the form before you return it to the Help Desk. The friendly Help Desk supervisor will then update your account details while you wait.

As a member of a thesis class, you will also be entitled to swipe-card and login access to our 24-hour Banjo and Oud labs on the ground floor of the K17 building. This access is finalised after the HECS census date each session.

All of this information assumes you are a CSE student with a supervisor from CSE. If you do not fall into this category, processing times may be delayed. Please visit the following webpage for more information on the steps you may need to take:
