Advising

Advising Policies

CEE students are required to meet yearly with their academic advisor, JeNai Davis or Devon Keith. Students are to be advised in either the fall or spring semesters, depending on the student ID number. Even ID numbers are advised in the fall, before spring registration, and odd ID numbers are advised in the spring, before summer or fall registration. It is the responsibility of the student to schedule these meetings, when prompted by email from their advisor.

Advising is required each semester for any student meeting the following criteria:

• Students who are on academic probation or are ‘off track’
• Students who have not accumulated 30 hours at UT

The department encourages any student who seeks an advising appointment at any time to email CEE Academic Advisor JeNai Davis or Devon Keith to inquire about scheduling an appointment.

Instructions for scheduling an advising appointment:

1. Select and follow the Curriculum Flow Chart based on your academic catalog year: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023.
2. Run your DARS report via myutk and complete the list of courses that you plan to take for the next two semesters on the Academic Planning Guide. Note any courses within the civil and environmental engineering curriculum for which you made a C- or lower on the Curriculum Flow Chart.
3. Schedule an appointment with your advisor via the Grades First email that you will receive. Bring your printed DARS report, Academic Plan, and Curriculum Flow Chart with you to each appointment.
