New Model Institute for Technology and Engineering (NMITE)

Student Support

Our Student Support Services are your first port of call for support. They’re dedicated to creating a positive NMITE experience for you, both inside and outside your learning - from accommodation and budgeting advice to signposting to more specialist services to suit you. 

Academic support

Your academic teaching team has the expertise to give you the right course-related support. Leaders in their fields, they’ll help to improve and develop your engineering knowledge and skills. They can often support with additional things too, offering impartial advice and guidance when you need it. 

Your personal tutor

Your personal tutor, a member of academic staff, is allocated to you. They’ll follow your progress to help keep you on track to succeed. Regular meetings will provide an ideal opportunity to discuss and collaborate on what you want to improve.

Academic Skills and Knowhow Centre (ASK)

Access a whole range of study support through ASK via one-to-one sessions and workshops. The team can help with your transition to NMITE, as well as the development of more advanced skills as you progress through your course. For international students, ASK provides specialist support in English study skills too. 

Mental health and wellbeing

Looking after your mental health and wellbeing at NMITE is vital if you’re to engage fully in your studies and enjoy student life. We have our own internal team of mental health champions, who can provide individual support, as well as develop personalised mental health support plans, just for you. As an NMITE student you’ll also have access to independent online and face-to-face counselling services.

Disability services

We offer a range of specialist services for students with disabilities. Please advise us as early as possible in your application process if you require support. This won’t affect your application in any shape or form. The information will simply enable us to tailor selection activities to suit your individual needs.

Equality, diversion and inclusion

Our commitment to you – as an applicant, student and alumnus - is to champion a positive and inclusive culture. We advocate for mutual respect, for each other, and for the values, beliefs and individual differences we all hold.  

NMITE Boost

We understand the impact of the rising cost of living has had on you, the student, so we’ve created NMITE Boost – an additional support scheme that we hope will help ease the burden of day-to-day costs. 

Some of these bonuses include free meals, a free food shopping scheme, free sanitary products, additional emergency financial support, and travel expense support.
