The study and career counsellors can help you with a wide array of questions concerning your studies at the Department of Social Work.

They are also coordinating support for students with disabilites and can guide you on how to get extra support.

If you are going to discontinue your studies, it is important that you notify the study- and career counsellors at the department. If you only want to take a temporary study break and know when you will resume studies, you should apply for a study break.
