Academic advising is a priority in the Biology Department at UCA. Every student majoring in a degree 
program overseen by the Biology Department will be assigned to a faculty advisor who will help guide students in making appropriate curriculum decisions. While students have the responsibility of knowing and meeting the graduation requirements, faculty advisors provide a resource for students to help make the goal of graduation a reality. Academic advising often goes beyond simply deciding a plan of study; by ensuring that every student has a faculty advisor, the Biology Department tries to keep students aware of various opportunities that can positively impact their academic careers, such as research, internship, and scholarship opportunities.
