Academic Advising The College of Arts and Sciences
School of Engineering & Applied Science
Students in the College have a strong network of academic advisors available to assist them throughout their undergraduate careers. Pre-major advisors help first- and second-year students navigate their entrance into academic and intellectual life in the College beginning with the issues of incoming first-years and continuing through the student’s exploration of a potential major. After declaring a major, students are assigned a major advisor affiliated with the program. All students are welcome and encouraged to speak with assistant deans for advising in the College Office. These advisors can help students explore the many options and opportunities available to College students, and they are available by appointment or on a drop-in basis throughout the year.
All students in Penn Engineering are assigned to a faculty advisor and a peer advisor in their major. Students who are curriculum deferred are assigned professional advisors experienced in working with students who may still be deciding. Each undergraduate major or program has an assigned coordinator who can help students with most issues pertaining to their major. In addition, students can meet with professional advisors to discuss nonmajor related academic issues such as dual degrees, minors, study abroad, and accelerated master’s degrees, as well as ask for help accessing academic and student support resources.
