CS Undergraduate Advising and Support

The Computer Science Division offers advising services for undergraduate students regarding degree requirements, enrollment, and resources. We are here to help and support you through your studies. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions related to the CS major, coursework, research, or just need someone to talk to. We're available for appointments and drop-in advising, but would encourage you to book an appointment to guarantee that we're available and prepared for our meeting.

CS Major Advisors

Students should visit a peer advisor because: Navigating the requirements of the Computer Science major can be confusing! Peer Advisors can provide a student's perspective on course selection and difficulty, and share the insights we've gained during our time as Computer Science students at Cal.
