The student support center is the unit authorized and responsible for providing students with the needed academic and psychological support in cooperation with the Students’ Performance Committee (SPC) at DAU colleges and programs. All activities and sessions provided will be student-centered and customized to the needs expressed by students through surveys, or observed by faculty members who will be invited to propose workshops, seminars, and similar interventions.
The activities will be delivered in a professional and flexible environment that utilizes the facilities available at COB (DAU main campus). The center works with all responsible staff members in COB (faculty members, academic advisors, dean) to identify students who need academic and psychological support, mentoring, or guidance. The students will also be given access to register and reserve a one-to-one ‘coaching’ session with a peer or faculty member.
