Open registration for the Mentor Programme

You can apply from 18 December.

When you arrive in a new country, the first few days are always difficult and doubts come up: How can I get to university? How does Academic Management work? What kind of activities does the Campus offer? It is not easy to answer these questions by yourself, and a little bit of help from a local student with experience is always welcome, and if they are classmates it is even better.

That is how the Mentor programme was born. Its name refers to “a person with more experience and knowledge who helps another person with less experience and knowledge.” With the purpose of making easier the stay of international UAB students and offering them support from local students, this programme wants to contribute to their academic, social and cultural integration in the UAB.

From 18 December registration is open for the Mentor programme of the second semester of 2015/2016.

Are you a UAB local student who wants to help international students from your faculty in order to do a cultural exchange? Have you participated before in an exchange programme and understand the importance of having some help during the first few days? Do you also want to learn languages? Here you can find more information.

Or are you an international student who just arrived? Do you want your adaptation process to be nice and easy with the help of a student from your same faculty? Do you want to immerse yourself in the local culture and know how people here live? Then, you can look up the conditions here.
