The department faculty are highly versed in the discipline through education and work experience. The Computer Science Building houses five large computer science laboratories with an extensive range of computers and related equipment for student use. Undergraduate Student Advisement Undergraduate students should call the department office of their major to arrange for advising and approval of their study plans. University policy requires students to see an adviser each of their first two semesters and every year thereafter. The three critical times for advising are before registering for the first semester, when selecting electives for the study plan, and two semesters before graduation for a graduation check.
Most departments prefer to advise their majors more frequently than the three times noted above.
Students interested in programs in the school, but without a declared major should call the Dean's Office for advisement. Graduate Student Advisement Graduate students should consult the graduate adviser in their major department before registering for the first semester. No more than nine units may be completed before an approved study plan is filed. Program in General Education Because of high unit requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Engineering, these programs have modified requirements for general education. Students should consult the department for requirements.
