Advisors
The department has a dual-advising system. The initial point of contact for most advising issues will be the advising coordinator in room 2162 Sweeney.
Advising Coordinator
Brenda Kutz, the advising coordinator, will help you with routine matters such as degree audit corrections, answering policy/procedure questions, handling scheduling difficulties, and guiding you to campus resources.
You will also see the advising coordinator for registration advising (registration deadlines are given at the beginning of the booklet) and to pick up registration materials. Shortly after enrolling in ChE 210, you will also be assigned to a faculty advisor.
Faculty Advisor
You should visit with your faculty advisor to discuss your progress and academic goals, for choosing a package of electives, for help in formulating career goals, for answers to questions about the profession of chemical engineering, for help in applying to graduate school, and for any other issue that requires faculty expertise.
Program of Study (POS) Forms
All students will complete a plan of study with their faculty advisor during the term that they are enrolled in ChE 202 in order to facilitate registration for remaining terms through graduation and to develop a cohesive package of electives.
Students who have already taken ChE 202 and who will graduate after S04 will also complete the POS with their faculty advisor. Students who have filed their POS and are not in academic difficulty, such as being on temporary enrollment (TE), may pick up their degree audit and registration materials (RAN) in 2162 Sweeney.
Students who are on TE or who will graduate during the next term will need to see Brenda or a faculty advisor before registering for their final term. Students who have not yet been assigned to a faculty advisor will see Brenda for registration materials.
International Program Advising
Students going on exchange programs will work with the exchange coordinator of ChE exchange programs and with Brenda for other university exchange programs. Those students preparing for work experiences will work with Brenda on completing the employment acceptance form for registration in the summer work, internship, or co-op courses.
