The Division of Information Technology (DoIT) offers a wide-range of technology services to the campus community: Internet/e-mail accounts, 24-hour computing lab, help desk support, campus-wide software licenses, and online services via the Web. Students have access to online registration, grades, financial statements, class schedule searches, class schedules, address changes, transcripts and Internet/e-mail account requests. Internet/e-mail accounts can be used for e-mail, dial-in modem access, publishing a personal web page, programming coursework, and online research. Additional instructional computing tools are available to students in support of curricular activities provided through agreements with other CSU campuses: social science database archives, business databases, geographic information systems, etc. Some of the current campus-wide software licenses DoIT distributes include Microsoft Office and Visual Development Tools, Oracle databases and application development tools, and anti-virus software. Faculty have access to online class rosters which list student names, e-mail addresses, Web page links, and some prerequisite information. DoIT also provides instructional computing support to faculty requiring online coursework, videostreaming, database administration, specialized IT training for classes, and administering listservs.

The John F. True 24-hour computing lab allows students to have access to computing resources with connectivity to the Internet and standard software applications. In total, over 1,500 PCs and Macintoshes are available to students, supported by the Division of Information Technology, the colleges and other departments at SFSU. Many are general purpose computing labs, offering standard software applications; others are specialty labs, with discipline-specific software. Over 300 dial-in modems provide remote access for the campus community. All classrooms, computer labs, and on-campus housing have high-speed network access. There are a number of computer workstations on campus designed to meet the needs of students with various kinds of disabilities.

The Division of Information Technology offers free short courses and workshops throughout the year to faculty, staff and students on basic, intermediate and advanced skills in computers—from word processing and spreadsheets to graphics, databases and Web pages. In addition to the courses, technical assistance is provided via the Web, e-mail (helpdesk@sfsu.edu), phone (415-338-1420), and walk-in (Administration West, Room 110).
