Subject Advisors for questions regarding individual degree programs
Subject advisors are appointed by the School to help students with specific questions about individual degree programs. They are also responsible for advising students in their third semester or above who wish to change degree program.
In addition, subject advisors provide information to prospective students who already know what they want to study if they have very specific questions.
Subject Advisors are available for detailed, programme-specific questions and help provide orientation within the respective degree programme. For general questions, the Student Advice Center should be contacted.
