How to find a person's UPI from the UCL Directory

This guide will show you how to find the UPI for current staff, students and visitors using the UCL Directory search page.

This guide is aimed at...

  • Staff

Before you start

The UCL Directory contains contact information for current UCL staff and visitors. Directory information is visible to everyone but certain extra information, including the UPI, is only available to users who log into the Directory service.

You will need:

  • Details of the person you're searching for.
  • Your UCL user id and password.

Instructions

1. Visit the Directory search page.

2. Enter the name of the person you are searching for in the search box.

3. As you type, suggested matching names will be shown in a preview box. This information includes name and contact information but not the UPI.
