I would imagine they are on eduroam which requires 802.1x set-up.

and indeed it seems they are; http://www.abdn.ac.uk/wireless/

You will need the helpdesk to sort out access unless you have eduroam from another institution (in which case it would have worked already).

My university used to spit at you (metaphorically, I assure you) if you said you were using a Mac. Nowadays they don't really mind; they say they don't technically support them, but usually do. This might have something to do with the fact that most of the staff in IS use macs whenever they get the chance... So I would ask them.
