Undergraduate student advisement begins during new student
orientation and continues through graduation. All engineering
students are assigned faculty advisors, and students are required to
consult with their advisors during the registration periods. Students
must also obtain approval from their advisors for courses taken
during the Winter or Summer Sessions and when adding or dropping
courses. Students are also encouraged to meet with their engineering
faculty advisors at other times to learn more about undergraduate
academic options, the engineering profession, and graduate school
opportunities.
The College Undergraduate Affairs Office provides advisement
to students who experience academic difficulties or who require
additional guidance. The Assistant Dean for Undergraduate Affairs
conducts a preliminary degree checkout with each engineering
student early in his or her senior year to help identify any
impediments to graduation.
