SFU Computing ID

Your SFU Computing ID provides you with access to SFU Mail, the Student Information System (SIMS), your payroll information, e-learning systems such as Canvas, campus labs, online library services and a variety of other systems. Your Computing ID is automatically created when your appointment has been processed by Human Resources and Payroll. Once your SFU computing ID is set up you will receive an email at your non-SFU email address to activate it online.
