Advising and guidance

Guidance refers to all activities aimed at enabling newly enrolled students or graduated students to plan and manage their learning in a manner which has to be consistent with personal life goals and exploiting all the individual skills and interests in order to achieve personal fulfilment.

Depending on the moment in the university course when these activities are implemented, a distinction is made between:

• guidance - carried out before choosing a degree course, it is aimed at prospective new students and offers support in identifying the course to be undertaken on the basis of individual interests, expectations and aptitudes. In this phase, the various possible scenarios are presented to the future student and the alternatives of the university curriculum are illustrated;
• guidance and tutoring - carried out during the university career, it is aimed at enrolled students and is designed to guide them through the degree courses they are on, enabling them to better interact with the structures and the university context.
