Starting University is always a stressful time for students. Some are moving out of home for the first time, moving country or returning to studies as a Mature Student. Financial pressures, making new friends and navigating your way through the University lifestyle and academia can take a toll on student's mental health. This course seeks to guide students through the social, financial and mental pressures of navigating University for the first time. This course was developed by the ATU Teaching and Learning Centre and N-TUTORR Team. My Digital Backpack was developed under the N‑TUTORR programme and funded by the European Union under the NextGenerationEU initiative, as part of Ireland’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP).
