User Account and Password

User accounts are created as name.surname@bilgi.edu.tr for employees and name.surname@bilgiedu.net for students. With their user accounts, BİLGİ employees can access the computer access provided to them, e-mail, SIS, Finance, HR, Secure wireless network (BİLGİSecure) and Ticket help desk. 
When the user account is first created, it is created with a temporary password. Before starting to use the account, you can reset the password by sending an SMS to 2322 by typing “bilgipass” from your mobile phone registered in the HR system or you can change the temporary password received from https://sis.bilgi.edu.tr/sisauth/ChangePassword.
