Introduction

Our university has been promoting BYOD (Bring Your Own Devices) since 2013 school year. Students are expected to bring their own laptop PCs and use university primary e-mail, applications, and services necessary for classes/courses with Kyushu University wireless LAN, also Microsoft Office software such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and so on. Here we provide the important information and links for activating SSO-KID (User Account), and setting up university Wi-Fi, e-mail, Office software to your laptop PC.

Activation of SSO-KID

You have to use your own account called “SSO-KID” and its password for Kyushu University Information Services. Before setting up Kyushu University wireless LAN, e-mail, Office software, and applications, you are expected to activate your own SSO-KID account by yourself.

• If you entered graduate school directly after you graduated from Kyushu University, you can use the same SSO-KID and password that you used in undergraduate school, and do not have to activate SSO-KID.

Note that SSO-KID and its password should be used strictly only by the authentic owner. Please pay serious attention to keep your own SSO-KID and password confidential against others.
