Word Description
Murdoch Authentication & Identification System (MAIS) The Murdoch Authentication & Identification System, or MAIS as it is usually referred to, is a system used by Murdoch University to identify and authenticate members of the University community who wish to obtain access to restricted functions and information services via MurdochNet. The MAIS uses a login combination of Murdoch Username (ie. Staff Number, Student Number, or Person Number) and Murdoch Password for identifying and authenticating users. It also enables the creation of "authorities" associated with a person or position to grant specific permissions to perform restricted functions (eg. change another person's password).
Murdoch Username All staff, students and other individuals associated with Murdoch University have an Identification Number (Staff Number, Student Number, or Person Number). This is used as the Murdoch Username.
MyInfo MyInfo is the web interface to the student information system (Callista). Using MyInfo students can manage information the University keeps about them. Students can look up exam results, enrol and withdraw from units and change personal details such as their postal address and preferred email address.
