There are several levels of advising available to the students in the Computer Science department.

• Pre-registration advising: Each student in the day and evening programs is assigned an advisor. Prior to registering for courses each semester, the student will meet with the advisor to plan what courses need to be taken in the coming semester. Advising for the next semester takes place typically during the third month of the current semester. A course checklist is utilized for each degree program to assist with the advising. In addition, four-year plan of study is available for undergraduate programs.  Policies on Internships and Thesis can also be downloaded from here.
