Would you like to guide people in making decisions about education and future choices?
The academic and career counseling team consists of 6 staff members who work closely together in daily activities with both general counseling and specialized guidance for certain programs.

The Student Support and Educational Administration unit is a central unit within the university's operational support with 22 employees. The unit comprises educational administration, academic and career counseling, student health, and examinations, and is one of three units within the Student and Educational Support department responsible for all study administration and student support, both centrally and toward the departments. The department is responsible for the validation process and admissions to the teacher education program, work in which academic counseling plays a central role.
Your Day as an Academic and Career Counselor
The work consists of providing guidance and information to prospective and current students. You guide students into their studies, through their studies, and in the transition to working life. In your daily work, you have contacts digitally, via phone, and in scheduled personal meetings. Your role is to support students and prospective students in independently developing awareness of their characteristics, competencies, and interests. The assignment also includes organizing information and training sessions.
Beyond close collaboration within academic and career counseling, you collaborate with colleagues in other parts of operational support and at the departments, as well as with external partners. Your work will also involve being part of shaping, developing, and implementing student support at both group and individual levels to increase the proportion of students who complete their education.
You also participate in the department's overall work and development.
