The undergraduate advisor is your first point of contact for questions about the undergraduate degree program. Contact them for questions regarding becoming a part of the Department of Ocean Engineering as well as questions about student records, including removing blocks from your registration, Q-Drop requests and other related items. You are also assigned an Ocean Engineering Faculty member to advise you on course selection, prerequisites, graduation requirements and general professional questions.
