What is it?
MakeMe Admin (PCs) and Promote to Administrator (Macs) are utilities that can be used on MSU Denver computers to grant elevated (administrative) privileges to your user account for a 15-minute intervals. This allows enough time to run common administrative tasks and mitigates the security risk of being a persistent local admin.

Who can request this?
Current faculty and staff assigned an MSU Denver device may request this. Requests from Student Employees will require supervisor approval.
