Our goal in the advising office for the Chemistry and Biochemistry Department is to provide excellent service to our students regarding course selection, degree program requirements, deadlines, and university and department policies and procedures. We strive to enhance our students' academic experience at ASU by creating an environment where students can go with any question and receive answers and/or referrals.

Advisor Responsibilities:

  • Assist students in the planning of their academic schedules
  • Clarify requirements, policies, and procedures
  • Help track progress towards graduation
  • Evaluate transfer credit needed for our degree programs (chemistry and biochemistry courses only)
  • Provide referrals when appropriate
