Buddy program

Buddy Program (from English: “Mentorship Program”)

The Buddy Program is a university initiative where senior students (mentors or “buddies”) help new students (freshmen or international students) adapt to university life and studies.

The program is designed to help newcomers integrate into the university environment through mutual support in social, academic, and cultural aspects.

Main Aspects of the Buddy Program:

Social Adaptation:

The program aims to help new students quickly immerse themselves in the university community.

Information Support:

Mentors share useful information about the university, its rules, resources, and daily campus life.

Intercultural Exchange:

For international students, it is an opportunity to better understand local culture and traditions, while mentors get to learn about new cultures.

Psychological Support:

The mentor becomes the first person the newcomer can turn to for help, contributing to overcoming stress, insecurity, and isolation.

How to Find Your Buddy?

Your mentor will meet you on the first day of studies. You will exchange contacts and create a chat for further communication.
