Faculty/Staff ID Cards
Faculty/Staff ID Cards allow university personnel to access departmental resources and restricted areas, in addition to basic access to buildings and resources. You may get an ID card as long as you are listed as an active faculty/staff member and have been assigned a PSU ID number.

Once Human Resources has authorized issuance of your Faculty/Staff ID, bring a valid government-issued photo ID to ID Services. Issuance of a PSU Faculty/Staff ID requires a PSU ID number. If you work for USGS, OTRADI, the Chancellor’s Office, or another entity with special appointment status, contact Portland State University’s Office of Human Resources to be assigned a PSU ID number and issued an ID Authorization Form. Bring the form to ID Services with your PSU ID number, and valid government-issued photo ID to obtain your card.
Expiration Date Stickers: These stickers will be attached to your PSU Faculty and Staff ID, and cards are not valid without them. Cards without a sticker or with stickers that have expired are revoked of all privileges and access. About a month before your sticker expires, your department head should issue new stickers to all members of your department.
Expired Cards: All staff and faculty PSU ID cards have an expiration date. Faculty/Staff ID cards issued after January 1, 2005 expire 10 years after they were issued. Expired cards will no longer grant building access.
Leaving PSU: Return your PSU ID card to ID Services.
Emeriti: To obtain an Emeriti ID card, bring your Emeriti letter signed by the PSU President. There is no charge for initial or replacement Emeriti ID cards, and Emeriti cards do not require a validation sticker.
