Lower division advisors
For early career math majors or minors (taking 100- or 200-level MTH courses), lower division advisors offer program and scheduling advice, and can provide signatures (e.g. change of major/minor forms) and registration PINs.
Upper-division advisors
Students who are taking 300- and 400-level MTH courses should consult with a member of the Undergraduate Advising Committee. These are the tenure/tenure-track faculty members listed above. These professors can help you with questions about your program, provide signatures or registration PINs, and work with you on career and graduate school planning.
