Resourcefulness at University

This illustrated pocket book offers advice and practical tips for
students to help build their resourcefulness and resilience at
university. This book acknowledges the huge emotional shift that occurs
when a student goes to university, and offers advice and strategies to help
them to deal with a new set of situations that may be academically and / or
personally stressful and challenging.



The book outlines some of the reasons why it is particularly difficult
for 18-24 year olds to deal with the upheaval of starting university, but goes
on to offer evidence-based approaches to help manage the transition. With
insightful material from students who describe the unique pressures they
experienced at university - and how they dealt with them - this is a very
practical book. From developing a "grit" mindset to strategies around social
connectedness, readers will learn ways to help them develop resilient life
strategies, and grow as a result of their experiences.



Written by the award-winning student mental health
specialist, Dr Dominique Thompson, this easy-to-read guide will ensure that readers
have all the tools they need to build new resourcefulness and resilience,
equipping them for life at university and beyond.
