How Advising Works
Advising in the Department of Plant Science and Landscape Architecture is designed to provide personalized guidance and meaningful support throughout a student’s academic journey. Each student is assigned a dedicated faculty advisor within their major or concentration — either during orientation or upon joining the program — and meets with them at least once each semester. Through one-on-one advising, students work closely with faculty to select courses, review their plan of study, and reflect on academic progress, ensuring their experience is thoughtfully tailored to their individual goals and needs.
