What's my e-mail address?

To see your current e-mail alias (your e-mail address to the public), please check your entry in the UBC directory at:
https://www.directory.ubc.ca/

After searching for your entry, click on your name for details. If a change is required, select the "Request an Update" link from that page. If you do not have an entry in the directory, please submit a work request and we will create an entry for you.  Be sure to include your full name, department, physical location and phone number.

Once a directory entry has been created for you, your e-mail alias will be in the format firstname.lastname@ubc.ca.
