Make an appointment

The College of Engineering Advising Scheduler is open.

Please contact advising staff by emailing CoENAdvising@unr.edu if you have any questions.

It may seem like a long path to graduation, but you don't have to get there alone. The College of Engineering has an advising system designed to help you take the right classes and find the right engineering program for you.

As an underclassman or new transfer student, you'll be advised by the College of Engineering's advising center. We'll help make sure you start off on the right foot and guide you through both introductory-level engineering courses and University core curriculum requirements.

As an upperclassman, you'll be advised by a professor within your major, allowing you to benefit from their expertise in the field and develop relationships with department faculty.

College of Engineering Advisement

Who do I get advising from?

  • Freshmen, sophomores and incoming transfer students are advised in the Advising Center.
  • Declared majors are advised by faculty members in the engineering departments. Find out who your faculty advisor is.

When do I need to see my advisor?

Students must be advised by an engineering faculty representative before attending engineering classes.

You should see an advisor:

  • Every semester before your registration date and time
  • If you are considering dropping a class
  • To discuss your academic progress
  • If you want to learn more about a particular major or minor
  • If you are considering graduate school
  • To get help applying for graduation

What do I need to do to get ready for my appointment?

Make the most out of your advising session by arriving prepared. Consider which classes you want to take before your appointment, and make a list of any questions you have so you don't forget to ask about important details.
