Advisors are faculty or staff who can guide students toward fulfilling degree requirements and planning successive semester courses of study. Every continuing student must have an advisor’s signature prior to registering for classes. Listed below are the primary advisors by major.
Students are encouraged to develop a meaningful relationship with their advisor by discussing academic goals during posted office hours and by appointment. E-mail addresses are provided on this site to contact advisors to arrange a meeting time.
