The Center for Student Mental Health and Well-being – Fall 2026

Published
By

The Center for Student Mental Health and Well-being offers a wide variety of opportunities for students to engage in hands-on health & well-being education and support each semester. Individual counseling services are available to students, along with support and therapy groups, a Husky Hour Series, and special semester events this fall. We also offer options for online counselor support through Mantra Health, which works hand-in-hand with our Center to ensure care is connected and comprehensive. We encourage faculty, staff, & advisors to recommend these programs and services to the students that you meet with.

The Center for Student Mental Health and Well-being has a digital Fall 2026 Events & Programming Flyer that will hopefully make it even easier to share this information with students when you are meeting with them. A physical copy of this flyer along with our rackcard about the Center, Mantra/Walk-in Hours card, and a mental health resources bookmark were sent via interoffice mail to all the Undergraduate Advisors. We have very limited additional copies available that you can request by emailing counseling@@mtu.edu. 

Anyone interested in helping us promote mental health and well-being events and programming can join our list-serv/Google Group. We will send promotion details and resources for each individual event that you can share either formally (to use in a department newsletter for example) or informally (for advisors to have event information to share with students).

For additional information on what services the Center provides, please visit our website: https://www.mtu.edu/well-being/ If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
