Coaching

The mentor system aims to aid the student through his/her master program. The role of the mentor is to help and guide the student in making decisions that affect the specialization of the student, the location, content and planning of the international semester and/or internship, and the preparations related to the master thesis project (MTP). The mentor is the contact person for the student throughout the master program, and is primarily responsible for guiding the students in the master program. The mentor will also become the first supervisor of the MTP.
