College of Engineering

Information and assistance on academic, career and personal matters is available in the Undergraduate Office, either through direct assistance from one of the staff advisers or through referral to other offices on campus. The Undergraduate Office handles student petitions, transfer evaluation, articulation and degree certifications.

Advising. As soon as you arrive on campus, you should consult with your departmental staff adviser, whose name and office hours you can obtain at the department office. The departmental staff adviser is aware of the requirements for your major and can assist you with planning your program.

Mandatory Advising. The College has implemented a mandatory advising system through the online registration system. You are required to meet with your adviser once a year, during a specific quarter, which is determined by the number of units you have completed. When you enroll in classes for your advising quarter, you will be told that you have an advising hold on your registration. You may enroll in classes for and during this quarter. If you meet with your adviser during this quarter, there will be no difficulties with subsequent registration. If, however, you fail to meet with your adviser during your assigned quarter, you will be dropped from all your classes on the first day of the following quarter. Therefore, you have approximately four months to clear an advising hold. For more information on mandatory advising, call the Advising Office at 752-0557.

Peer Advisers. A well-developed peer advising system complements faculty and staff advising. Student advisers are in Bainer Hall, Engineering II and other locations.
