Getting Started with MiCORES

U-M faculty, staff, and students can access MiCORES with their uniqname and UMICH password. Visit Establish a U-M MiCORES (iLab) Account for instructions.

Important: Register using your uniqname with your “@umich.edu” email address, (i.e., Michigan Medicine users cannot use a @med.umich.edu email address) as accounts use a single email domain for the university.

Individuals from institutions outside of the University of Michigan who have an existing iLab account can access MiCORES using their "home" institution’s iLab account. First, click the login button. Then check the Login using iLab credentials box located under the "Not a UMich user?" section of the login dialog box. Visit Establish an Account for non-UMICH Users for further instructions.

Individuals associated with the University of Michigan without university credentials, and without "home" institution credentials will need to obtain a Friend Account or sponsorship through a U-M unit. You must set up a Friend Account before registering for an iLab account.

Once you complete the one-time iLab registration process and are approved by your PI or Lab Manager, the MiCORES system will enable you to place service requests, provide required approvals, and monitor progress.

Note: Some U-M cores require their users to be approved by the core staff prior to requesting services or reserving equipment.
