Stress during studies and how to cope with it

During the study period, there are numerous sources of stress resulting from the demands of the studies themselves (e.g. exams, difficult/comprehensive material, learning difficulties) or outside the studies (conflicts, e.g. with partner or roommates, work alongside studies, financial worries), which can be significant for all students. International students face further challenges, such as unfamiliar surroundings, homesickness, and concern for family in uncertain countries of origin.
The workshop will identify specific stresses and develop coping strategies. The students will also receive information about further possibilities of counselling and support and when these should be taken advantage of.
