Faculty advisors provide in-depth information on particular areas of study and serve as a contact point between the student and the faculty.  They assist students in selecting a specialization and have full authority regarding courses taken to fulfill the student's specialization.  In addition, they are responsible for completing degree checks for graduating students and determining degree certification for the major.

Faculty advisors also discuss research possibilities for students with other faculty, career opportunities, and in general, act as a mentor for the student.

Students are assigned to faculty advisors based on their specialization, interests, and the current workload of the faculty advisor.  The selection of faculty advisors is done by the Master Advisor and the Academic Program Advisors.
