Advising

Students at all levels of their undergraduate career benefit from academic advising, and it's mandatory that students meet at regular intervals with their advisor to review program requirements and progress toward degree.

The philosophy behind our department's one-on-one undergraduate student advising goes well beyond the parameters of prescriptive guidance and discussion of degree requirements. Senior Academic Advisor Merissa Milton (physics majors) and Academic Advisor Susmita Saha (CS + Physics) take students through a self-evaluative process that takes into consideration intellectual goals and career aspirations.

In addition to providing timely information about college policies and procedures pertaining to registration, course enrollment, academic status, and general degree requirements, our advisors are well connected within the University's network of enrichment opportunities for high-achieving students. They also connect at-risk students with academic-support and other resources and advocate for them, supporting and guiding the necessary return to good academic standing.
