Riassunto

This illustrated pocket book offers advice and practical tips for students to help build their resourcefulness at university. This book acknowledges the huge emotional shift that occurs when a student goes to university and offers advice and strategies to help them to deal with a new set of situations that may be academically and / or personally stressful and challenging. The book outlines some of the reasons why it is particularly difficult for 18 to 24-year-olds to deal with the upheaval of starting university, but goes on to offer evidence-based approaches to help manage the transition. With insightful material from students who describe the unique pressures they experienced at university – and how they dealt with them – this is a very practical book in which readers will learn ways to develop life strategies and grow as a result of their experiences. Written by the award-winning student mental health specialist, Dr Dominique Thompson, this easy-to-read guide will ensure that readers have all the tools they need to build on their resourcefulness, equipping them for life at university and beyond.
