Students require many types of guidance and encouragement during their undergraduate journey. The math department’s faculty advisors are happy to help guide the mathematical development of students interested in mathematics.
Because navigating the mathematical landscape can be tricky, math offers one-on-one faculty advising. If you wish to:
- discuss courses and course planning in mathematics,
- explore the mathematics major or minor,
- investigate summer internship or research opportunities,
- declare or release a mathematics degree,
- investigate the mathematical aspects of your study abroad plans,
- explore post-graduation options for students of mathematics, or
- discuss most any mathematical topic,
please schedule an appointment. Advising appointments are generally not available on observed holidays, study days and throughout the spring and summer terms.
We recommend that math majors talk to a math department advisor before registering for courses each term, before making any program changes, and before leaving to study abroad.
If you have questions about transfer credit evaluation, please do not ask a math department advisor; they will not be able to help you. Instead, please visit the Department’s transfer credit evaluation page.
