Undergraduate Advisors
The department appoints several faculty to serve as faculty advisors each year. The faculty advisors assist with such matters as defining academic and career goals, approval for course equivalency and course substitution, and other related matters. In addition, the staff undergraduate advisor, Josie Valdez (2063 E II, 752-7036), acts as a general information resource and deals with academic advising issues such as degree and major requirements, program planning, policies and procedures, academic advising checkpoints, graduation certifications, expanded course descriptions, articulation with community colleges, and with the procedure for declaring the CS or CSE major. Students may seek advice from any of the faculty advisors or staff undergraduate advisors.
