Study Adviser

Students of the University of Twente are assisted by a Study Adviser. The Study Adviser will be monitoring study progress; will advise and assist students within the field of skills concerning study (choices, progress, process and planning) and conducting assignments. The Study Adviser will also help and advice students on the pathways of their specific academic careers. Students who are hampered in their progress as a result of special (personal) circumstances (or are facing such a risk) will be guided not only by the Study Adviser but also by Student Psychologists and Student Counsellor of the department of Student Affairs Coaching & Counselling (SACC).
Contacts with the Study Adviser can be pro- and re-active: you can make an appointment yourself, but can also be invited.
