School-based Academic Advising Scheme

Aims

  • To build up an early and close connection between the students and academic staff within the School, and to promote their sense of affiliation to the School and the University
  • To provide students with accurate information about the academic regulations and requirements regarding the programme  
  • To assist students to explore their interests, abilities and values on academic pursuits
  • To provide advice and guidance to students to enable them to develop and pursue an appropriate study plan which will meet their intellectual, professional and personal goals
  • To connect students to resources, opportunities and support within and outside the University that can enhance their educational experiences and success

Operations

  • Each student is assigned to a full-time academic staff (advisors) who will follow through his/her study period at PolyU

  • Preparing for each advising meeting by:
