Advising for Students in Their Third Year and Beyond

By the time you are in your third year, you will have access to an advisor in your major. Some majors will assign advisors sooner than others. Once the assignment is made, contact information can be found in LionPATH.

Please see the table below for the name of the director of undergraduate studies and undergraduate program coordinator for each College of Engineering major. Meeting with a faculty adviser can be especially helpful when a student is working on long-term scheduling plans (for ROTC, a semester study abroad, concurrent majors, etc.) or would like to learn whether a specific engineering major might be a good fit for their interests and goals.

If you don’t know the name of your adviser, please contact your department’s undergraduate program coordinator.

About

The Engineering Advising Center (EAC) serves as the academic advising resource for students in pre-major status (ENGR) at University Park. Once students have been admitted to a College of Engineering major, they will be assigned to a faculty adviser in that major.
