As a new student on Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety you will get a student mentor the first semester of your studies. The student mentor is a student from your study programme who will share their experience and assist you if you have any queries.

The student mentor will arrange social gatherings and give practical information in smaller groups that you are part of automatically.

You will be contacted by your student mentor after the start of your semester.

During the Orientation week, you will get to know NTNU, your city and other international students in fun ways, and learn everything you need to know to get started in Norway and settle in at NTNU. The Office of International Relations arranges the orientation week.
