Intranet FAQs

A new UChicago Intranet Welcome Page launched on February 15, 2023, allowing all visitors to better understand which groups currently have access to the intranet today. Staff, faculty, and other academic appointees will be able to access the Intranet—and the homepage they are accustomed to seeing—after logging in with their CNetID. 

The UChicago Intranet is for faculty, other academic appointees, and staff. Over the next few years, the platform will be expanded to additional audiences.

No, faculty, OAAs, and staff automatically have access to the intranet, based on their affiliation in Workday.

New hires generally gain access to the intranet within the first week after their start date, once the individual has activated their CNetID, their HR representative has entered their data into Workday, and the identity management system adds the individual to their correct Grouper groups.

No, they do not. Any HR/Payroll or other information they may need related to their status as an employee is available to them on the University’s public website.

No, right now only faculty, OAAs, and staff have intranet access.

Since the intranet is password-protected, anyone who is not a UChicago faculty, OAA, or staff member will not be able to access links to intranet pages.

Visit intranet.uchicago.edu and click on the “INTRANET LOGIN” button on the Welcome page. If you are a current faculty, other academic appointee, or staff member and you have your CNetID, please enter your credentials via single sign-on (SSO) to gain access to the intranet.

If you are a current faculty, other academic appointee, or staff member and are having trouble accessing the intranet, contact IT Services at the Self Service Portal, email itservices@uchicago.edu, or call 773.702.5800 for technical support.
