An HMS account ID is required to access HMS IT services like email, collaboration shares, wireless networks, research clusters, and the MyHMS.
HMS accounts are automatically created for those with a Harvard University ID (HUID) issued by Harvard Medical School, the School of Dental Medicine, and the School of Public Health. Faculty and staff based at HMS-affiliated hospitals also qualify for an HMS account.
Your HMS account credentials consist of your HMS account ID and a password you set during activation.
Before using an HMS account, you must activate it. To activate your HMS account, visit the account management page and select Activate your account.
