Among the responsibilities of SiB include housing for 3000 students, two training centres, kindergarten places, ten cafés, the seven book stores SiT Tapir, psycologists, advisors, career centre, heath station and economic support arrangements. The housing for students is located at Berg, Singsaker, Øya, Moholt, Voll, Jakobsli, Lerkendal and Steinan. About 20% of students in Trondheim have accommodation through SiT.
