Faculty Advisor Assignments

All incom­ing stu­dents will be assigned a tem­po­rary fac­ulty advi­sor later this sum­mer, after admis­sions has been final­ized. This usu­ally takes place toward the end of August, or early Sept.   You will then arrange to meet with your advi­sor between Sept. 16 (when fac­ulty are back on pay­roll after the sum­mer) and the begin­ning of the quar­ter (Sept. 25), to go over your pro­gram plan for the year. 

You can go ahead and reg­is­ter for classes when you are able (PMP stu­dents will reg­is­ter through PCE — see the PMP Infor­ma­tion Cat­e­gory in this blog), all oth­ers will reg­is­ter through MyUW on or after your reg­is­tra­tion date. You can choose classes from your area of inter­est, and any­thing 400–500 level is gen­er­ally OK.  After you meet with your fac­ulty advi­sor you can make changes to your sched­ule if needed dur­ing the first week of the quar­ter with­out any late fees.

Note: Full-time study for grad­u­ate stu­dents is 10 Credits.

Registration

Reg­is­tra­tion for autumn quar­ter for incom­ing grad­u­ate stu­dents will be start­ing in late June.  You’ll receive that infor­ma­tion after pay­ing your Enroll­ment Deposit.

Reg­is­tra­tion Process:
PMP stu­dents will receive reg­is­tra­tion forms and instruc­tions from the Pro­fes­sional and Con­tin­u­ing Edu­ca­tion Office. Stu­dents on the research track will reg­is­ter through MyUW.

Fac­ulty advi­sors will be assigned later this sum­mer, after admis­sions is final­ized.  You will be noti­fied then who your advi­sor will be. You will arrange to meet with your fac­ulty advi­sor some­time between Sept. 15 and the begin­ning of the quar­ter to go over your yearly course plan. If you will be work­ing on a research project, the fac­ulty mem­ber you will be work­ing with will be your advisor.  

In the mean­time, you can take a look at the Time Sched­ule for Autumn 2013 at:
http://www.washington.edu/students/timeschd/AUT2013/cee.html

You can find the cur­rent master’s degree require­ments for your area of inter­est on our web­site at: http://www.ce.washington.edu/prospective/grads/masters.html

Keep in mind the degree require­ments have not been final­ized for the 2013–2014 aca­d­e­mic year at this point, so this is sub­ject to change.  You will be sent an updated pro­gram plan with degree require­ments prior to registration. 

Since you will not be meet­ing with your fac­ulty advi­sor until Sep­tem­ber, you can pick the classes from the Time Sched­ule you would be inter­ested in tak­ing, (keep­ing the degree require­ments in mind), and go ahead and reg­is­ter when you are able. Then if you need to make any changes after meet­ing with your advi­sor, that can be done through the first week of the quar­ter with­out any penalites.
