Beginning with the 2011 Fall Semester, we no longer create
Engineering Email accounts for students. You must use the
UK Account Manager to
create your University Email Address (UEA) and activate either a
Microsoft Live or a Google Apps for Education account.
Existing Engineering Email accounts are not affected by this change.
However, we strongly recommend that all Engineering students also ensure
that they have a valid UEA, since this is what will be used in our
student mailing lists (see Engineering Student
Mailing Lists, below).
Engineering Student Mailing Lists
We maintain several mailing lists for distributing information
to all students in the College of Engineering. There are two
basic types of these lists: lists for general information from
the College administration, and lists for information related to
engineering job opportunities.
These are post-only lists, not intended for discussion. If
you have questions or concerns about something that gets posted
to any of these lists, please make sure your e-mail gets
addressed to the person who sent the message, not to the list.
The general-information lists tend to have the suffix
"-students", "-grads", or "-undergrads". These lists are hosted on the
University's list server, lsv.uky.edu, and are generated each weeknight
from data in the Campus directory. Because the information
that gets posted to these lists pertains to the functions or activities
of the College or your department, you should not
unsubscribe from these lists while you are an Engineering student.
(If you do unsubscribe, and the Campus directory still has you listed
as an Engineering student, you will be resubscribed a day or two later.)
However, if you seem to be on the wrong list(s), you can ask
us to put you on the right one(s).
The other set of lists we maintain is for information related
to engineering job opportunities. These have names that begin
with "coe" or a departmental abbreviation, and end with "-jobs".
At the beginning of each semester, we will send an invitation to every
Engineering student who is not already on these lists to join both the
coe-jobs and the relevant department-jobs list; students who do not
wish to join the list may simply ignore the invitation.
Students who have lost or did not receive an invitation to the
-jobs lists may submit a subscription request to the -jobs lists at
the list
manager web site.
Students who are on one or more of the -jobs lists but wish to
unsubscribe may do so at
the
list manager site; each month, every list member
receives a membership reminder which includes their list password
and instructions for changing list options or unsubscribing.
