Learning Outcomes and Competencies The elective modules ‘Tutorials 1-4’ are courses that students in semesters 1 to 4 can undertake in a small group setting, enabling them to take responsibility for their own learning and self-organisational skills under the guidance of more advanced students. They will work on topical problems.

Students in the higher semesters of study can choose the modules ‘Mentoring 1-2’ to assume this guidance role.

The small group activities will be initiated and supervised by the head of the study programme or by lecturers.
Module Content
Current problems for study can include:
• Support with subject-specific issues within the biotechnological curriculum      in lectures and practicals - developing learning strategies
• Support in general student life
• Personal support of a general nature (buddy function)
• Etc.
Follow-up Modules New students can replace students who leave. Over time, students naturally outgrow the role of advisee and themselves become advisors. (Tutorials 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 > Mentoring 1 > 2)
Methods of Instruction  In-person meetings and those organised according to the specific situation  (on a confidential basis).
