Advising

All majors are expected and required to see an advisor at least once a year and preferably every semester.  You can go on advising day or any other time when your advisor is available.  Most faculty serve as advisors.  Faculty office hours are posted in the department office and on each faculty member's web page.  Our faculty page has links to member's current web pages.

We are particularly concerned that students sequence their courses correctly.  Some students have taken longer to graduate because they have delayed taking their quantitative classes (Math 226, Econ 311 and 312) too long in their career.  Math 226 is a requirement for our intermediate classes (Econ 301 and Econ 302) and it is in every student's best interest to take this class as soon as possible.   For information on course substitution, please see our requirements and equivalents page.  If your course does not follow our specific guidelines, you should see Dr. Mar about equivalencies for Math 226, Dr. Blecha or Dr. Chattopadhyay about equivalencies for Econ 311 and 312.
