Information Technology Services

Information Technology Services (ITS) provides technology support, resources, and innovative solutions in alignment with academic, research, and administrative goals.

What kind of technology does my student need?

See our Shopper’s Guide (its.temple. edu/shoppersguide) to see if a specific computer configuration is recommended or required for a particular school, college or program. If no particular configuration is needed, see the Shopper’s Guide section on suggested minimum recommendations. The guide also has information on hardware and software discounts, and where to shop for technology.

Temple students also have access to Microsoft 365 and Adobe Creative Cloud at no additional charge so you don’t have to purchase these software programs.

Are there computers on campus that my student can use?

There are a number of computer labs on Main Campus, as well as at Temple’s other campuses, such as the Health

Sciences Center (HSC) TECH Center. Most labs feature workstations with general and specialized software, printing for lab workstations, and wireless devices where students can take advantage of their print quota. On Main Campus, there is also the TECH Center, Temple’s computer facility housing Windows and Mac workstations equipped with specialized software, Breakout Rooms, specialty labs, and specialty printing stations.

Students can also borrow a laptop from our Laptop Share kiosks for up to four hours and return it to any kiosk around campus.

Can my student get tech support on campus?

We offer tech support to Temple students at no additional cost through the Help Desk (its.temple.edu/technical-support). The Help Desk provides a wide range of technology, application, and university support and offers extensive hours throughout the year to assist students by phone, email, chat, and walk-in services.
