The
College Advisor/Recruiter initially interviews and advises all new students,
including transfers. After that initial meeting each student will be
assigned a permanent advisor from the ME Department. At a minimum, students
must visit their advisor before enrolling in courses for the following
semester. Students are encouraged to visit with their advisor as often
as they need. Advisors can provide advice and guidance in all matters
affecting academic performance. Advisors are also very willing to provide
career counseling.
Advising
Procedure for Course Enrollment
Each
currently enrolled ME major must be advised for the following semester
or summer term by a Mechanical Engineering Advisor during a period set
aside each semester for this purpose. Notices of the advising period
will be announced in engineering classes and on bulletin boards in the
Engineering Building. Students are encouraged to review the following

Advisors
will review the course list and approve it or suggest changes as appropriate.
Both the student and advisor will sign the form. The original copy of
the RAF will be kept in the student's permanent file in the ME Academic
Program Office. Advisors will also review and update the Degree Plan
form.
Student
Responsibility
The
student, not the advisor, is responsible for meeting UT Tyler's graduation
requirements. If a student does not meet the graduation requirements,
he or she will not graduate, regardless of the advice received. It is
the student's responsibility to know the degree requirements and to
be actively involved in developing a plan of study to meet these requirements.
