Checkout Form
Chemistry department graduate students will receive a checkout form from the office prior to your departure. For CIF checkout, we will remove your key card access to the labs after your last day of employment. Please let us know when we sign your check out form if you need access to labs until a certain date.
Instrument Accounts
The login privileges established for you on the various instruments will be removed after your departure from ISU.
Data Access
We may remove locally saved files on instrument computers shortly after signing your final date of employment. If you have a large amount of data you would like to back up, you are welcome to bring an external hard drive to the lab and we can transfer the data to your personal device. This may take a few hours depending on how much data you have.
Data archived in the CIF Research Cloud will be preserved indefinitely (at least 10 years) so that your major professor and other members of your research group will continue to have access to it. You can read more about accessing your data after departing ISU on the Remote Data Access page.
