Student guidance

If you have questions regarding your study progress, you can consult the academic advisor for bachelor students of the major Automotive Technology. Usually, guidance by the academic advisor is once only. But if you wish you can also arrange multiple appointments over a longer period of time to tackle multiple problems. 

The academic advisor can help you with: 

• study delay 
• (personal) problems impeding with your study progress 
• a referral to a student counsellor, -psychologist, or other expert or institution 
• making the right choices regarding specific course combinations, the weight of the course contents, and your study program 
• requesting exemptions and arranging admission exams

The academic advisor for bachelor students of the major Automotive Technology is Kim Schellekens- Nicolaije. 

You can make an appointment with the academic advisor here. 

As a 1^st year student you will be assigned a student mentor by the Department. The student mentor helps you with the practical matters that you have to deal with related to your studies. For example, where you can buy books, what is the best way to study, and how to find your way in student life. The student mentor also helps you in making choices concerning your elective courses.

Throughout the 2^nd and 3^rd year of your Bachelor's program you will be assigned a teacher coach with whom you meet two/three times per academic year. The nature of the meetings with the teacher coach is mainly reflective, which means that your coach encourages you to think about your career path and professional skills and provides you with specific feedback on these reflections. The teacher coach also shares his or her expertise in the field of electrical engineering and shares his/her career path and experiences. This will provide you with helpful insights inside and outside the university that you can use for your own personal and professional development.
