Academics & Advising

The University of Washington is a big place, full of thousands of opportunities. Advisers can help you navigate the landscape, and make sure you don't stumble along the way.

Advisers help students explore their academic interests, develop plans for a major, understand and complete requirements, avoid or overcome administrative problems, and develop a sense of purpose in their undergraduate education. Pre-engineering students are not assigned a specific adviser. Students may meet with (or contact) any one of the advisers in the Engineering Advising & Diversity Center for assistance.

The Engineering Advising & Diversity Center (EADC) is located in 301 Loew Hall. To make an appointment with an adviser, please call (206) 543-1770 or email eadc@u.washington.edu.

If you do not have an appointment, “drop-in” advising is available Autumn, Winter and Spring quarters, Monday through Friday, 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
