Academic Advising

Guiding students every step of the way.

The Center for Academic Advising and Professional Development guides students from orientation through graduation, ensuring they complete all degree requirements and are ready to compete successfully in today’s job market or for entry to graduate or professional school.

The college’s professional, peer and faculty advisors in each major help students choose the appropriate courses consistent with their specific career objectives. Each department also has a student advisor and advocate who has thorough knowledge of degree requirements and can help resolve academic issues.

The College of Science and Technology also offers comprehensive student professional development services, such as job fairs, internship assistance and resume reviews to prepare students to succeed in their career field.
