“There are many support systems in the school, but students are not always aware of them. We are at the crossroads of these supports. We welcome the students, listen to them, identify their difficulties and then make the connection with the support system best suited to each situation.”
Frédérique de Graeve, head of the CentraleSupélec Support Unit.
