Student services
SIT has set up a student advisory office at each campus. Trained counselors are available to offer advice to students on days when the offices are open. If necessary, the counselors can liaise between students and teaching staff or entities within SIT. They can also provide information on external counseling organizations and other sources of advice.
Housing services
Students living away from their families typically live in either shared houses, student dormitories, mansions or apartments - but bear in mind that the types of `mansion’ and `apartment’ are not quite what you may be used to. Here, a mansion is usually a concrete apartment building with three or more stories. A mansion complex is typically equipped with elevators and an auto-lock with a security camera at the main entrance. Some mansions even have doormen and cleaners for communal areas.
Library services
Each campus (Toyosu, Omiya and Shibaura) of the Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT) has a library and students can request books from other campuses. As of April 2016, the number of books at these three libraries totaled 261,861. In addition to books, magazines and electronic journals/books are also available and can be perused using state-of-the-art systems.
Medical services
The campus health centers help students to prevent illness, monitor their health, and stay well. They also provide first aid if a student falls ill, feels unwell, or sustains an injury. Students are welcome to visit the health centers to discuss any health-related concerns or problems.
