Academic Advising

The College of Engineering engages in a shared advising model to assist students in building a strong academic and social support network throughout their collegiate experience.

Incoming first-year engineering students are assigned an academic advisor in either First-Year Engineering Program (FEP) or Engineering One-Stop (EOS) with most students being advised by EOS academic advisor in their spring semester. Depending on their chosen major and degree progress, students will begin meeting with a faculty advisor in their chosen major after 1-2 years of study.

Transfer students or students changing into engineering are assigned an advisor based on their math placement and degree progress. Some students will be advised by faculty in engineering departments and some by academic advisors in Engineering One-Stop. Students considering changing into engineering should email eos@uark.edu for assistance.
