University of Tasmania, Australia

Many students struggle with a number of issues while studying, but at UTAS there are people and student support services that can help you with these problems. Often knowing where to go can be the difficult part.

Student Advisers offer individualised assistance to help you solve your problems or identify where you need to go for help with these issues. Your Adviser will refer you to specialised support if necessary and follow up to see how it's all going. From simple requests for information, to more complex and serious matters, Student Advisers are your first point of contact if:

• You need some help improving your time management skills
• You need initial advice on academic skills or study tips
• You have personal circumstances impacting on your studies
• You have difficulties understanding University processes
• You are having attendance difficulties
• You have difficulty understanding your unit content and feel as though you are falling behind
• You have a question and don't know who to ask
• You want to know more about other support services across the University, including Counselling, the Careers and Employment Service, Disability Services, and the Cross-Cultural Support Service.

If you would like to find a Student Adviser in another Faculty or School, please contact the Student Centre.

Telephone: +61 3 6226 2697 or email Support Equity and ask for your closest Student Adviser contact.
