Personal Advice

Personal advice on questions and difficulties in studying
Studies do not always go according to plan. Changes can occur, the unexpected happens, obstacles suddenly appear, questions cannot be answered...

We offer you individual advice and support for your personal study success! Our counseling team discusses questions regarding your personal course of studies in a trustful and confidential setting, e.g. regarding the following topics:

  • How do I plan my further course of studies?
  • What is the best way to manage my time?
  • How do I balance my studies, work and/or private life?
  • How do I integrate into university life?
  • How do I best prepare for my examinations?
  • How do I solve writing problems for homework or theses?
  • Where can I find information about my studies?
  • What (other) support and counseling services are available?

 

Online consulting

You live far away from the university? You have children at home and need to organize care for a counseling appointment? You have a (chronic) illness and the way to the university is troublesome? We now offer online counseling via the "Adobe Connect" tool in addition to face-to-face counseling. This allows us to provide face-to-face counseling without having to sit across from each other "in real life".

 

How does online consulting work?

We set up a consultation appointment (as we normally would), for example, via email. We then set up a chat room for that appointment on Adobe Connect and email you an access link. You can log in by name (or anonymously) at the appointed time and the consultation begins. You (!) choose how you want to communicate - in writing via chat, verbally as in a phone call, and/or with a camera - almost like a "normal" conversation.

 

"Why online consulting, you can do it by phone...?"

The advantage of consulting in Adobe Connect (compared to a phone call, for example) is that we can access digital materials together with you on Adobe Connect. For example, we can show you the degree programme pathway or show you where to find certain information on the university website, etc.

Important: If you do not have access to a PC (or there are other reasons why online advising is not possible) we can of course also provide advising over the phone.

 

"I have concerns about confidentiality and privacy..."

Adobe Connect is provided by the German Research Network (DFN) and thus meets our (high) requirements on the topic of data protection and confidentiality. The chat takes place in a locked chat room set up especially for you, so that only you and I as the consultant are digitally "present". There is no storage of protocols, as well as no recordings or the like. I take the issue of confidentiality just as seriously as in a face-to-face consultation.

 

Technical requirements:

You will need a PC with Adobe Flash Player (recommended: Flash Player 11.2 and higher), a stable internet connection, as well as a headset/micro and (if you like) a camera. For more information on technical requirements, click here.

Course of Study Advising

Tutorials and revision courses

Subject Tutorials
Subject tutorials have a long tradition at the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics. In the tutorials, students with technical and didactic training provide advanced course content and practical orientation. You can attend the tutorials without prior registration. The tutorials that are offered in the current semester can be found in the course catalog in the online portal. Please note that the schedule may be updated and adjusted on an ongoing basis.


Repetitories
Repetitories were offered for the first time in SS 12. Qualified repetitors support small learning groups on the topic "how do I learn best", often with reference to specific examinations and written exams. This offer is primarily aimed at students in their 2nd and 3rd attempt. The aim of the revision courses is to support students with greater difficulties in preparing for exams. Attendance of the revision courses is only possible after prior registration - please note the remark in the course catalog.


If you have any questions or comments regarding the tutorials and revision courses at the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics, you can contact the relevant university teacher / lecturer or the Student Degree Programme Counselling.

The Examinations Board is an independent body of the Hochschule Niederrhein and an authority in the sense of the Administrative Procedure and Administrative Process Law. It consists of the chairperson, the deputy chairperson and five other members. The chairman, the deputy chairman and two other members are elected from among the professors, one member from among the academic staff and two members from among the students by the responsible faculty council. With the exception of the Chair and Vice-Chair, one representative is also elected for each member of the Examinations Board.

MATCHPOINT CAMPUS is the job exchange of the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics at the Hochschule Niederrhein. The innovative web app brings students and companies together systematically and effectively. In contrast to conventional approaches, MATCHPOINT CAMPUS combines central elements of self-assessments and job exchanges: students and companies analyze in detail who they are, what they offer, and who they are looking for (screening), and then find a perfect fit for each other thanks to special algorithms (matching).

We wish you an exciting screening and a successful matching!
