Advising

Schedule an Appointment

You can schedule an advising appointment with Robotics to discuss things such as major exploration, course planning, degree requirements and progress, career opportunities, and declaring a major.

Drop-In Advising

Undergraduate students only, Fall and Winter terms only
Robotics Undergraduate Academic and Faculty Advisors offer virtual drop-in advising appointments for ROB students who have quick questions. The goal for each drop-in appointment is 10-15 minutes.

Drop-In Advising Winter 2024 Schedule:
Tuesdays in April (4/2, 4/9, 4/16, 4/23) from 10:00 am–12:00 pm

Please note: Drop-In advising will not be available during the week of Spring Break (February 26th-March 1st). Winter Drop-in Advising will conclude on Friday, April 23rd for the semester.

For students looking to receive career planning advising, ROB Faculty members will be available on select days.

Petitions

A student may request special permission for an exception to the Robotics degree requirements or guidelines for a specific reason or circumstances through our Robotics Undergraduate Program - Petition for Exception Request Form. It is recommended that the student consult with an academic advisor, the undergraduate coordinator, and/or the Robotics Undergraduate Q&A Forum before submitting the petition.

Petitions for late adds/withdrawals, reinstatement, retroactive term withdrawal, and exceptions to college rules can be found on the Engineering Center for Academic Success website.
