A new study, a new network
Ready to welcome the new students were, among others, Luanna Bergh Jensen and Karen Sonne Westergaard Pedersen, who both have particular reasons for signing up as vectors. Luanna started her education in 2020 while Covid-19 swept the country, putting an end to many social activities. That is has motivated her to give the new students the start to their studies that she did not experience:
"I want to give them a better experience than my own, and at the same time, I craved the social element. Our student association Polyteknisk Forening is particularly known for providing the new students and vectors with an excellent social network in connection with the start of their studies," Luanna explains.
For Karen, it is about giving the new students a great study start and about showing that you can gain a university degree, even if you are diagnosed with autism and ADHD:
"It is important to me that the new students know help is available in the form of social-pedagogical support if they have a diagnosis and would like to study at DTU. That's why I share my story with them," says Karen.
