Student counselling programs in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Annamacharya University aim to assist students in reaching their full academic, technical, and personal potential while encouraging general well-being, stress management, and career readiness. These services offer help in a variety of ways, including individual guidance, peer group sessions, and technical-academic workshops tailored to engineering students. Individual therapy involves tailored, one-on-one sessions in a safe and confidential setting, allowing students to address academic pressures, code anxiety, and personal difficulties while working toward clear personal and professional goals. Group sessions provide students with the benefits of peer interaction and collective support, allowing them to confront common difficulties and acquire insights from shared experiences.
