InCommon and Web SSO Authentication
InCommon is the US higher education federation.
Overview
NDSU is a member of the US InCommon federation and the global eduGAIN federation. To use your Bison Login at a number of locations, search for North Dakota State University in the site's list of institutions. How you navigate to this list varies by site, but usually includes phrases referencing institution or organization credentials. This will let you use your Bison Login at a number of different sites across the globe, including Educause, NIH, NIH PubMed, MyUnidays, NSF, ScienceDirect, ORCID, and more.
Many other systems require that you enter an email address ending with @ndsu.edu or go to the correct login URL.
Do not bookmark the login page, that rarely works.
