    Student counsellors provide students with advice, counselling and information about study methods,

    choice of study programme, questions regarding their studies and being a student, and practical subjects

    as well as personal matters or problems.

    STUDENT COUNSELLORS (STUDENT SUPPORT)

    Student counsellors can assist students with questions

    and problems relating to the student personally as well

    as his or her studies. It is their job to help you find

    answers to your questions and solutions to your problems

    in personal and confidential interviews. If another person

    or institution is better able to help you with your problem,

    the student counsellors can refer you accordingly.

    Student counsellors are also responsible for handling

    complaints about the conduct or actions of employees

    and organisational aspects of the university in relation

    to students (ombudsman function). One of the student

    counsellors is the confidential counsellor for students in

    matters regarding sexual harassment, aggression and

    violence.

    Matters in which the student counsellors can provide

    advice, counselling and information include:

    Personal questions and problems;

    Choice of study programme, planning and motivation

    but also study method (e.g. effective study skills,

    preparing for interim examinations, falling behind

    in studies and switching to another programme);

    Student grants and loans;

    Financial support;

    Accommodation;

    Assistance in appeal proceedings;

    Top-level sport: making alternative arrangements in

    the event a top athlete is unable to take an interim

    examination on the given date;

    Disability: if an impairment or chronic illness forms an

    obstacle to the students study progress, the student

    can ask a student counsellor to make the necessary

    provisions.

    An interview with a student counsellor is strictly confiden-

    tial. You can make an appointment with a student

    counsellor through the Erasmus Student Service Centre

    (010 - 408 2323). For more information, please visit

    ARE YOU LOOKING FOR AN INTERNSHIP? A THESISASSIGNMENT? A PART-TIME OR FULL-TIME JOB?

    Career Services provides a broad range of services to students of the RSM

    Erasmus University, most of them internship and future career related. Career

    Services staff members function as a liaison between students, the corporate

    world, and the different departments of the business school to help determine

    and facilitate internships, research opportunities and jobs.

    Career Services can help students to clarify their interests and skills; refine

    interviewing and curriculum vitae preparation skills, pursue internships and

    research projects and interact with potential employers. Students are

    encouraged to use any or all services, especially in the year preceding their

    BSc or MSc graduation!

    INTERNSHIPS

    Students can benefit from internships by receiving hands-

    on experience and learning professional skills that will

    enhance their degree and help prepare them for a

    successful career. Within the Business Administration

    curriculum students can choose to do a Bachelor intern-

    ship in their third year, and frequently internships are

    used as a substantial element to complete the Master

    thesis.

    Your own initiative in finding an internship is crucial.

    To be fully notified of any internship opportunities in the

    Netherlands, abroad and in the Netherlands but for non-

    Dutch speakers, students are advised to register to the

    SIN Online Career Services channel.

    Simultaneously all offers are posted on the Career

    Services website www.rsm.nl/students/careerservices.

    Students can apply to these projects by sending an e-mail

    with attached letter of motivation and curriculum vitae to

    [email protected] mentioning the project number.

    Because there are dozens of students not just from

    RSM competing for the best internship opportunities,

    students will need to prepare for their search months in

    advance. A good start is to attend a Career Services CV

    Session. It helps you develop your application by giving

    feedback on the curriculum vitae and cover letter.

    During your studies at RSM there is the opportunity to spend one term at one of our 100 partner schools

    all over the world. These exchanges are facilitated within our Bachelor and Master Exchange Programme

    (see also: www.rsm.nl/international). Once a year (January - March) a selection procedure takes place for

    exchanges in the next academic year.

    Most important selection criteria are:

    Progress and minimum weighted grade of 6.5 in (non) RSM

    Bachelor Programme as well as the grades obtained at RSM so far.

    The higher the grades the better chances for the most popular

    exchange destinations.

    Language skills are needed for an exchange abroad. For partner

    schools of which the teaching language is English, the exit level of

    B2.2 is required, for other languages this exit level is B2.1

    The EUR Language and Trainings Centre offers language courses

    and test to reach the required language levels, see also

    http://www.eur.nl/english/ltc/

    language_courses/

    In addition the selection is also based on your extra-curricular

    activities, motivation and impression during the interview.

    From October onwards the new brochure Study Abroad Guidelines will

    be available. It is recommended to read this brochure carefully prior to

    application.
