Project "Path Out of Your Problems"

As part of the “Path out of your Problems” project, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences is developing an AI-based support system in the form of a chatbot to help students deal with their problems and questions. A first prototype of the chatbot is currently being developed in cooperation with students and internal and external advice centers, which will then be made available to all HSRW students free of charge after appropriate adjustments have been made.

The use of AI in university counseling provides students with a low-threshold and anonymous first point of contact and thus facilitates access to the counseling structures. Depending on the student's query, the chatbot will either answer it itself or refer them to the relevant internal and external university advice centers.
