The
Engineering and Science Advising Commission welcomes the participation
of all advisors in the areas of engineering, architecture, natural
sciences, mathematics, computer science, and technology. The
commission focuses on improving advising for students by finding
answers to these challenges: highly structured curricula, importance
of accreditation issues, student attitudes toward college, poorly
defined learning objectives, high level of stress among students,
critical diversity and equity issues, academic support concerns,
competitive nature of admissions, and the high percentage of
international and ESL students, as well as other challenges
as defined by members of the Commission.
The
Commission values contributions from new and experienced professionals,
faculty, and administrators interested in these issues. We are
also interested in seeking input from all institutional types.
We are especially looking for those interested in enhancing
the Commission’s reputation for having active NACADA members
at the local, state, regional and national levels.
