Setting up your E-mail account
The Department of Marine Sciences provides a user account and a respective E-mail address for all students, faculty and staff members. DMS and University of the Aegean service desks may use this email address to inform you of important announcements such as emergency closings or event announcements.

Faculty, staff members and Ph.D. candidates are encouraged to contact the IT Service Administrator desk for further customisation of their user accounts.
