What is Céim?
Céim offers a collaborative approach to learning and adjusting to university life. 1st year students meet weekly for an hour to support each other and learn together under the guidance of trained 2nd year Student Leaders, with input from academic staff.
1st years benefit by being part of a course-related peer network and gaining relevant academic and transferable skills, helping them to get the most out of their time at NUI Galway. Student leaders undergo comprehensive training and develop valuable skills, including leadership, communication and organisation skills, to boost their CVs. Staff gain a deeper understanding of the challenges facing 1st years and how to support the transition to higher education.
Céim is being piloted in the College of Engineering & Informatics at NUI Galway in 2013 and is a joint initiative of the College of Engineering & Informatics and NUI Galway Students' Union.
