Advising Information for Current Students
Advising within the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department takes several forms. All students are required to meet with either their faculty advisor or staff advisor (during drop in advising) every semester, prior to registration. A registration hold will be enforced until you meet with your advisor, so plan to schedule this appointment well in advance of your registration time.
Rebecca Megill (ECCH 127) is available for quick academic advising between 9am and 11am on Tuesday and Wednesday during the Fall 2009 semester.
Most common advising questions can be addressed at this searchable advising website http://cbenadvising.pbwiki.com/ - If you don't find the answer to your question on the wiki or on this page, you may email it to chbeadv@colorado.edu
Most critical advising information is provided in the Undergraduate Student Help Guide. You may have a received a copy of this guide as a freshman.
Advisors are now selected based on your current class level at mysignup.com/advisorselection. Follow the guidelines at the top of the page to determine your class level – it is based on courses in the department, not on overall credit hours. The advisor you select will follow you through your bachelor’s degree in the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department.
What do I need to do to prepare for my advising appointment?
Before your advising appointment, consider your course plan for the rest of your time to degree, as well as any career or curriculum questions you may have. Do you have all required courses planned for? Are you going to fulfill all course prerequisites? Bring your plan with you to your appointment. Stop in the Chemical and Biological Engineering Office (ECCH 111) to check out your advising folder just prior to your appointment. You will need your Buff Card to check out your folder. Also pick up an advising form from the bin on the hanging files outside ECCH 111.
