The student service offers consultation and help in different cases.
The social counselling is often a first contact point for personal, social and financial problems which evolve during a study. In the foreground is the personal counselling and information, normally during an one person conversation, also partly in groups – f.ex. topics like “studying with children”.
Often it’s a matter of very complex problems in which personal, financial or organizational problems intertwine. Sometimes is only a short information needed to solve a problem. Many times is an intensive help during decision making processes and working on solutions needed. Many a time is a procurance to another counselling centre (f.ex. ZBS, PBS), authorities (f.ex. job centre, housing allowance centre) or to a legal advice needed.
Other tasks are among others the content counselling of published social information by the Studentenwerk, formulation of new information materials, cooperation in the Notfonds e.V. for foreign students and the development of loans.
The counselling is always anonym and trustful.
