Advising

Every third- and fourth-year mechanical engineering (ME) student is assigned to our academic adviser, located in 140 Reber Building. The adviser assists with developing academic plans and offers resources and advice for academic decisions. While the adviser guides and provides insights, students are ultimately responsible for their course scheduling, program planning, and ensuring the completion of graduation requirements as stated in Academic Policy 32-30. 

The ME academic adviser is available for appointments as posted in Starfish.

The administrative support assistant manages all student records. Please contact the ASA if you have any questions about your degree audit, course substitutions/petitions, and graduation.

The program education specialist is available to answer any questions you may have about department- and college-level scholarships, our course offering schedule, program education objectives, the student newsletter, and student department-level events.

The director of undergraduate studies is available by appointment through Starfish for academic or professional advice and to discuss co-ops/internships.

The associate department head for undergraduate programs addresses undergraduate program issues and can answer questions about policies, procedures, and study abroad curriculum choices.

Appointments can be made through Starfish, or you can email brief questions to advising@me.psu.edu.
