Program advisors
Program advisors, located in their respective academic units or departments (e.g. the advisor for Biology programs is located in the Department of Biology) are experts in the requirements of their department's courses and programs. Each major, minor, honours, and interfaculty program at 不良研究所 has a program advisor.听
Speak with a program advisor if you have questions about:
- Program requirements (majors, minors, etc.)
- Courses offered in their unit/department
- Course registration issues (e.g. requesting permission to register for a course that is full or has restrictions)
- Careers in a specific field of study
- Getting the most out of your program
- Research
- Graduate school in your field
Program advisors are not assigned.听
For questions about a program or course, contact the program advisor in the unit/department offering that program or course (e.g. for questions about the major in math, you would contact the program advisor in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics).
