Tips for a nice and educational student life Hi first year students! Those of you who started your studies this autumn have hopefully already started with your subjects for this spring. The last semester probably brought with it both positive and negative experiences, but the road to graduation is still long. Your time as a student is rarely problem-free, but student life is still said to be one of the most fun and rewarding times of your lives! Your professors (including us :) ) all have in common that they were once students as well. We see ourselves in many of you. An important part of our job now is to create a motivating and good learning environment. We want each of you to develop a wide array of skillsets, ranging from theoretical knowledge and practical abilities, to the ability to see the bigger picture and think critically. Reflection and curiosity is also very important. Our main goal is to help you become good problem solvers (that can compete with others on the market). We also have a vision that your studies here at NMBU will help you continue to learn and grow, even long after you’ve graduated. Our professors are people, and people are different, but our passion for our respective subjects and our wish to share this with you is something we all have in common. We wish to achieve this through interesting lectures that pique your curiosity and make you want to learn more. Basically, we want to be good educators. Here are some good tips on how to have fun while learning:
Take an interest in your subjects!
