Councelor Roles

The counselor roles are academic and include:

  • Authorizations for including courses outside the program as part of the degree requirements
  • Authorizations for including a compulsory-elective course as an elective course
  • Help in choosing courses according to personal interests
  • How to overcome difficulties in the academic studies
  • Authorizations for courses taken in foreign universities as part of student exchange programs

The counselor cannot help in:

  • Admittance to MSc studies
  • Choosing MSc studies
  • Improving the grade average
  • Exceptional approvals for exams
  • Any approval or authorizations related to courses that are not in life sciences, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, and programing
  • Administrative preparations for finalizing your studies

The counselor cannot help in administrative matters. For those one must turn to the student’s secretariat. For example: registration for courses in the different systems

The counselor decisions can be appealed by turning to the program’s appeals committee.
