Key/Card Requests?
For ECE space in Engineering Building II (EB2) or the Monteith Research Center (MRC), please submit your request to ecehelp@ncsu.edu, cc’ing your PI or Supervisor for approval.
Once the request is approved, there will be a 1-2 business day turn around. You will be notified by email to come and pick up your key(s) once they are ready. Appropriate card access will be provided as a part of this request. Note that this is the same process in the event of lost keys.
Ensure you include the room number(s), full name, and campus ID number as part of the request.
By requesting a key, you must understand and accept your responsibility to the College of Engineering and the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering to 1) occupy and use the facilities in accordance with all University policies, regulations, rules, and practices and with all applicable municipal, state and federal laws and 2) return the key immediately after your appointment is over. If a student, you understand that if you fail to return the key, your Graduation may be placed “on hold” until the key is returned. See NCSU Policies, Regulations, and Rules Manual for further details.
