THE PRINCIPLES OF
THE UNIVERSITY MENTOR PROGRAMME
鉁� Everyone is responsible for themselves
The Mentor Programme supports students in finding solutions and understanding their opportunities, but students remain responsible for their own decisions and actions.
鉁� Support through cooperation
Mentoring begins when a student requests help or accepts support offered by a mentor. The mentor and the student work together as partners.
鉁� Every student matters
Each situation is considered individually. We listen carefully, treat every case with respect, and focus on finding the best possible solution.
鉁� A bridge between students and the university
Mentors help create understanding between students and university services, supporting communication and cooperation.
鉁� Confidentiality and trust
Student information is handled responsibly and shared only when necessary and justified.
鉁� Fair and objective support
We approach every situation without prejudice and focus on facts, solutions, and student wellbeing.
When needed, professional support may also be involved.
