Direct inward dial-in (DDI)
Many, but not all, staff telephones in the University are reached by direct inward dial-in: dial +44 (0)1334 46nnnn, where nnnn is the internal number you found in your search.
Should you receive the unobtainable tone then the number you have called is not enabled for direct dial inward. Please contact the main switchboard number (above) for assistance. Corrections should be emailed to the telephone office.
5 Digit Numbers
5 digit numbers have been allocated to some student residences (particular new builds at Fife Park). To access any 5 digit extension dial 01334 424446 and input the extension number when requested. (4 digit student residence numbers currently have a DDI of 01334 42nnnn)
Staff directory search
The staff directory can be searched using the search box on the right hand side of this page (under the heading "Search staff directory").
This facility can be accessed from outwith the University, however it will not show ex-directory numbers unless you are logged in with a valid University of St Andrews username and password.
