Advising
If you're a political science major, you must work with advisers in the general office of Academic Advising and with a faculty adviser within the department.
Faculty advisers provide guidance on coursework and unblock students' PINs so they can begin registering for their courses. They also offer information on internships, honors theses and careers in political science.
You can find your political science faculty adviser by checking the lefthand column of the "Student" tab in webCentral. Don't see your adviser listed? Send an email to polisci@du.edu.
You're always welcome to call our main political science office line, 303-871-2743, or email polisci@du.edu if you have a general question for the Department of Political Science.
4 tips for success:
- See your adviser often! Students who see their advisers several times a year are more likely to meet the degree requirements on schedule.
