Undergraduate Academic Advising in Chemical Engineering

OVERVIEW
The Department provides advising resources for undergraduate students to assist them in planning their degree program at the University. These resources include faculty advisors, the Department Undergraduate Office, and the Department Undergraduate Advisor.

FACULTY ADVISORS
All undergraduate students are assigned a faculty advisor and are required to see their advisor before registering for classes each semester. Students will generally have more than one faculty advisor during their time at UT; every effort is made to keep students with the same faculty advisor to maintain continuity.

During visits with their faculty advisor, students are able to discuss their career plans and get the advisor’s input on specific courses, technical area options, etc. to help them achieve their goals. Advisors can also make recommendations and offer guidance regarding summer internships, undergraduate research experiences in Chemical Engineering, and help address any other issues of concern to the students.

UNDERGRADUATE OFFICE
The Undergraduate Office, located in CPE 2.706, is available to undergraduate students throughout the year to answer general degree questions, and University and College of Engineering policies and procedures. This office also handles initiation of course substitutions, degree audits, less than 14 hours petitions, Major Sequence applications, repetition of course petitions, etc.

UNDERGRADUATE ADVISOR
For students with advising needs that cannot be addressed by their faculty advisor or the undergraduate office, the Chemical Engineering Undergraduate Advisor is available. Click here for contact information.
