Undergraduates: Academic Planning
Welcome! If you would like to talk with us about the AEM program, please feel free to stop by the office at 107 Akerman Hall or contact Professor Yohannes Ketema, the Director of Undergraduate Studies, at [email protected].
You can find information about year-specific course planning and more in the undergraduate handbook.
Academic Contacts
Freshmen are assigned an advisor through the College of Science and Engineering (CSE). This advisor will work with you until you are accepted to the AEM program. CSE Advisors are available to assist students with course selection and academic support.
After being accepted to the AEM program, you’ll be assigned a department advisor and receive an email with his or her contact information.
One-Year Plans
As an AEM student, you are required to submit a one-year plan to be approved by your AEM Department Advisor on the SRS every spring, and have a mentoring appointment with your AEM Faculty Advisor. Your AEM department and faculty advisor assignments are listed in SRS.
The One Year Plan plan will list the courses that you will be taking in the following academic year and is approved by your AEM Department Advisor. Consult the course planning guides in the Undergraduate Handbook in filling out your one-year plan. Your meeting with your faculty advisor will cover topics such as grad school, TE selection, minors, co-ops, internships, jobs, and general catch up on courses. You can sign up for your meeting with your faculty advisor here: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/appointments/AcZssZ3dNhRbwIFd5mjC11jJuS4YlWK9yriDP7tEXgU=.
Once your AEM Department Advisor has approved your One Year Plan, and you've met with your AEM Faculty Advisor for a mentoring appointment, we will remove your DS hold and you should be able to register for Fall!
CSE Advisors are also available to assist you with issues and questions about University requirements beyond the AEM program and career planning.
