UQ-Ochsner Orientation and Onboarding

This section contains complete details for UQ-Ochsner students transitioning to Year 3 at the Ochsner Clinical School. 

NOTE: Students may experience difficulties accessing some of the websites needed to complete orientation and onboarding requirements, whilst still in Australia or outside the U.S. For many complex reasons, some sites are not always accessible everywhere in Australia. The sites are accessible on campus at St. Lucia and Herston, and anywhere in the CBD of Brisbane. Please also try using different internet browsers.

2. Ochsner email accounts

Ochsner email accounts will be created for all UQ-Ochsner students for use in Years 3 and 4 of the UQ-Ochsner MD Program. Official email correspondence is sent to students' UQ & Ochsner email accountsStudents are responsible for what comes through both their UQ & Ochsner email. It is strongly suggested to link your email accounts to remain updated at all times. Students who have not received the details for setting up their Ochsner accounts by the end of November should contact med.ocsStudentAdmin@uq.edu.au

Setting up Ochsner email

Using your Ochsner User ID and temporary password, which will be sent to your UQ student email from Ochsner IS Provisioning (ISProvisioning@ochsner.org), enroll in MyPassword to reset and create a new Ochsner password. Refer to the MyPassword Enrollment instructions. Students must enroll in MyPassword before accessing their Ochsner email for the first time. Once you have completed the MyPassword enrollment, you can login to your Ochsner email using this newly created password at http://webmail.ochsner.org. Your Ochsner email is your Ochsner User ID@ochsner.org (i.e. v-xxxx@ochsner.org). 

MyPassword and Ochsner email accounts must be set up by 18th December 2023.

NOTE: Students may experience difficulties accessing the websites for MyPassword and Ochsner email, whilst still in Australia. For many complex reasons, the Ochsner.org sites are not always accessible everywhere in Australia. The sites are definitely accessible on campus at St. Lucia and Herston, and anywhere in the CBD of Brisbane.
