Log In

All UNMC students, faculty, and staff already have access to this system with their campus username and password. Use your standard campus username (do not use your.name@unmc.edu; do not use UNMC_DOMAIN\your.name) and password below. If you are having trouble logging in with your campus username, you must reset your campus password -- we cannot reset your campus password for you.
A REDCap-specific account can also be created by the Research IT Office to grant REDCap access to non-UNMC personnel. If you have one, log in with the username that was assigned to you and its corresponding password. We can reset the passwords for these accounts, so you should only click the "Forgot your password" link below if you have one of these accounts.
Please log in with your user name and password. If you are having trouble logging in, please contact your project administrator. UNMC staff may contact the Research IT Office.
