The Office of Student Services and Counselling at Uttara University functions as a fundamental institution providing assistance and direction to students, with a specific focus on improving their holistic welfare, individual growth, and scholastic achievements. By maintaining an unwavering dedication to offering extensive support services and resources, our office assumes a critical function in cultivating a campus atmosphere that is constructive and all-encompassing, conducive to the flourishing of students.

Central to our mission is the aim of fostering comprehensive growth and achievement among students through the resolution of their varied concerns and requirements. Our institution provides an extensive array of programmes and support services that are designed to advance the academic, personal, and social development of students while empowering them to surmount obstacles and accomplish their objectives.

The Office of Student Services and Counselling is entrusted with a diverse array of primary duties, which comprise academic advising, career counselling, personal counselling, disability support services, and student advocacy. Students are assisted in navigating academic and personal obstacles, making well-informed decisions, and gaining access to necessary resources and accommodations through the provision of individualised guidance and support.

By organising community service initiatives, leadership development programmes, and extracurricular activities, our office is additionally committed to encouraging student participation and engagement in campus life. By providing students with opportunities to engage, collaborate, and develop beyond the classroom, we foster a sense of community and belonging. The Office also manages university wide class schedules and routines, classroom and lab allocation etcetera.

The Office of Student Services and Counselling assumes a critical function not only in delivering direct support services but also in fostering awareness regarding mental health and offering crisis intervention and assistance. By means of counselling services, seminars, and resources, we assist students in times of crisis, reduce the stigma associated with mental illness, and advance mental health literacy. This is done in conjunction with the Mental Health Unit.
