Advisement

Your departmental adviser is considered a "specialist" in your area of study. You should consult with Dr. Amanda Baugh on issues related to your major, minor, career options, and graduate school.

Informal advisement concerning graduate schools, area of interest, and careers may be discussed with any of our full-time faculty.

Here are some questions you might find helpful when meeting with the adviser:

  • Are there any prerequisites to the courses I'm interested in taking? If so, what are they?
  • What are the first major courses you suggest I begin with?
  • Are there times during my academic career when my department expects to see me for consultation about my progress?
  • What type of careers are available to Religious Studies majors?
  • What type of resources are available to me? (tutoring, counseling, career planning, study abroad, honors)
