Students advisors are mainly charged with offering students advice and guidance on issues related to their university studies, such as: academic contents of our degree programmes, curricula, approaches to academic work and study methods, how to reconcile learning, life as a student and wellbeing. Department student advisors cannot offer guidance regarding appeals or serious personal or social problems. In such cases, students are referred to the student advice services at the central administration studvegl(at)setur.fo. For queries regarding studying abroad, students should contact the University’s International Office ask(at)setur.fo.
