Student Email

Overview

Duquesne University is pleased to announce a student email environment powered by Microsoft Outlook Live. 

Students will benefit from Outlook Live email, as well as a suite of other Microsoft applications that enables them to better communicate, share, organize and collaborate with the Duquesne community.  Another great benefit is the 10GB inbox limit.

Who can use Outlook Live?

CTS is currently in the process of developing a proposal for a new employee email system built on the Microsoft Exchange environment. Communication will be forthcoming; please check back.

        • Mobile – Anytime Access.

        • SkyDrive –25GB Online Storage. Private and Shared.

        • Spaces – Create your own web space.

How do students access Outlook Live?

Students will log into DORI and can use the email icon in the upper right corner to access the Outlook Live student email environment. 

Although forwarding is an option in the student email space, Outlook Live has the capability of consolidating any non-Duquesne email account, such as Gmail, Hotmail, and others, so you can receive all of your messages in one place.
