Advising and Career Center

The School of Energy Resources faculty and staff are committed to help you be a successful student! Opportunities are available to help you with your academic planning, finances, belonging to the UW community, and wellness.

Academic advising is a collaborative education process whereby students and their advisors form a working relationship to establish the student’s educational and career goals and utilize the resources available to optimize a student’s experience in the process of meeting those goals. To support this process, there are expectations of the student and the advisor. These expectations will encourage a successful partnership, and help students achieve the learning outcomes of academic advising/career services.

All students in SER (BS, minor, or certificate students) will meet with the approriate advising staff for their academic advising and career services. Students are free to make as many appointments as they want towards these two efforts.
