What is FIKA (I hear you ask)?
Fika is an app designed specifically to help students learn practical mental fitness techniques. It is already being used by a number of other UK universities, and through using the app, you'll learn tips to help you manage your mental health and apply them in your everyday life.
Through short exercises, you develop and build keys skills aimed at helping you react positively to whatever life may throw at you.

The Fika app has been launched on an initial 10 month pilot through the Faculty of EPS Wellbeing Committee. Due to limited licences the app is currently restricted to our new level 1 and direct entry level 2 undergraduate students in the schools of CCE, EEECS, MAE M&P, NBE, Psychology, Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. We would like to apologise to other interested students, if you would like to receive access to the app please email eps.wellbeing@qub.ac.uk where should we have remaining licences we will endeavour to provide these to interested students.
