Study advisers
Your study adviser or coordinator is an expert on all aspects of your study programme. If you have any questions or concerns about your programme, whether they be of a practical or academic nature, you can contact your study adviser.
Academic issues
Are you experiencing academic difficulties? Or are you falling behind in your studies due to personal circumstances? If so, it is essential that you speak to your study adviser/coordinator as soon as possible. He or she can advise you on the best course of action and, if required, assist you in dealing with academic delay.
Practical issues
You can also speak to your study adviser about a range of practical issues concerning your programme, such as:
- Planning your studies
- Schedule issues
- Choosing elective credits
- Requesting exemptions
- Advice on internship
What kind of information and advice can the study advisors give you?
The study advisors provide students with information and give advice on study-related matters, such as:
- content and structure of the programme
- study and exam regulations
- study planning and progress
- elective courses
- Internships
- exchanges
- problems with thesis
- possibilities regarding studying with a disability
- (possible) delay in completing your studies due to personal circumstances
