Guided Start at TU Graz
TU Graz is committed to a “Guided Start”: In course of the Student Lifecycle, we want to support every stage in a student’s lifespan at our university. As good as possible, as much as needed. This process already starts in fostering interest in the various study programmes through outreach activities such as STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) events for kids and continues with an onboarding process that is set up with numerous measures to provide first year students with the best possible transition into the university environment. Those measures shall contribute to a better integration in a new setting and eventually target to increase student’s success as well as decrease the probability of a drop-out.
Testimonials to Guided Start at TU Graz
From my personal experience, it is very recommendable to socialize and form study groups in order to motivate and exchange knowledge with each other.
With the first semester-tutorials the students have immediately connection to fellow students for social activities and supporting each other in the challenges in study.
Personal contact, a friendly way of interaction, some flexibility and an open ear for problems and the willing to solve them, and most important a breeze of humor definitely help most.
