IT Faculty’s Degree Shepherd activity to support students
Have your studies slowed down? Would you like to receive support during your journey toward graduation? Is your thesis yet to be finished? Degree Shepherd activity of the Faculty of Information Technology helps students to finish their degrees.
We help with overcoming challenges and can organise different targeted events and other kinds of peer support. For example, we can help with the planning and scheduling of studies, sorting out missing studies and organising events to support the writing of theses. The hopes and needs of students determine the contents and schedules of support measures.
