Dear students and faculty,
Northeastern uses Microsoft Office 365 Exchange as the email client for faculty, staff and students. It is accessible through a desktop (Windows/Mac), the Outlook Web App (OWA) and various mobile devices. This article describes how to configure Office 365 email on an Android phone. Note: Different Android phones use different stock email. NEIU students are eligible for technology-related software discounts. This information is provided for convenient access by students and is not meant to be an endorsement or approval of these companies. Free Office 365 for students is not affiliated with NEIU and requires a valid NEIU email address. Office 365 Up-to-date versions of Microsoft applications are available to you as part of Northeastern’s Office 365 faculty and staff subscription. This benefit includes an @northeastern email account and calendar, downloads of the Office suite on up to 5 personal devices, and the online and mobile versions of the Office apps. At Northeastern Office Equipment, we have been an industry standout in the office equipment business for more than 50 years. The reason—pure and simple—we provide a level of service unmatched anywhere. Anyone can sell a product. But at the end of the day, the price won’t mean a whole lot if you cannot get the service you need.
To support classes moving online, student access to lab and classroom software has been enhanced to allow learning and work to continue remotely. Commonly used software packages, such as Adobe Creative Cloud, MATLAB, Stata, and other applications are now more easily accessible and available virtually. Information on how to access these resources from a distance can be found below.
