Student counselling
Student counselling
The Student Advisory Service is provided by the Central Student and Career Advisory Service (ZSKB). We are your first point of contact for any questions relating to your studies.
Target group: We offer prospective students guidance and support in choosing a degree programme, and we assist current students with planning and organising their studies, as well as with any challenges they may face.
We can advise you regardless of whether you
- don’t yet know what you want to study,
- are already studying, or
- are planning to graduate.
