Introduction to the Student Support Office, The School of Science

Student Support Office Counselor
Asami Endo, Takuro Suzuki, Shion Higuchi (on childcare leave)

The Student Support Office of the Faculty of Science is for students belonging to the Faculty of Science and Graduate School of Science. The Student Support Office of the Faculty of Science is located in the Faculty of Science Building No. 1 and is easily accessible to students of the Faculty of Science and other faculties. In addition, a branch office has been set up in Building 2 of the Faculty of Science from FY2021, allowing users to use the interview room according to their needs. In addition, in accordance with measures to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infection in FY2020, online consultation using Zoom is available in addition to the conventional face-to-face consultation in person.

The unique feature of this service is that it is located within the Faculty, which makes it easier for Academic and Administrative Staff to cooperate with each other. For example, a student may feel stuck in his/her studies or research and find it difficult to talk to his/her academic supervisor alone, or he/she may want to consider a leave of absence but is not sure how to proceed. By analyzing with the student the circumstances and issues that led to his or her request for leave of absence, the counselor will not only support the student in formulating his or her future prospects, but will also provide practical support, such as coordinating between the academic supervisor and the student for discussions and, if necessary, providing support in Administrative Staff procedures. We also provide practical support, such as coordinating discussions between faculty and students and assisting with administrative procedures when necessary. For students who want to know more about their personality traits, psychological tests can be administered in addition to interviews to deepen self-understanding. In addition, we offer counseling for problems related to interpersonal relationships with friends, seniors, juniors, the opposite sex, faculty members, and family members, as well as for mental and physical ailments such as depressed mood, loss of appetite, and insomnia. If we judge that the student's needs are met, we may refer the student to other institutions and recommend that he/she use them in parallel with this room. In addition, we accept consultations not only from students themselves, but also from Academic and Administrative Staff concerning students.

The Student Support Office aims to support the lives of students enrolled in the Faculty of Science and Graduate School of Science in terms of its counseling function. Currently, five counselors are available to assist students, so please feel free to contact us.
