The Academic Advising Program is designed to
assist students who have yet to decide on a major.
Not only are students provided help with choosing courses to meet
graduation requirements, students are also provided
opportunities to explore majors and careers through a process of
research and self-discovery. Students who need help choosing an appropriate major will work with an academic advisor who will discuss options that are available. Though undecided students may not need to participate in all phases of our career exploration program, the process of self-discovery begins with the aid and feedback of self-assessment tools such as SIGI 3 and/or the Strong Interest Inventory. Students are also provided the use of a variety of internet resource sites to help them explore possible majors and careers that may be a good fit for them. The Career Interest Game is one of the most helpful web-based sites. Another is the Occupation Outlook Handbook Online. This government maintained website provides current and accurate information about the job market so students are able to have a variety of questions answered about careers they may be interested in. For both of these sites, results from a Strong Interest Inventory will be useful. The Strong Interest Inventory is now available online. If you have not been provided with a password to take the Strong Interest Inventory, please call SAS Academic Advising at (719)549-2581 to speak with an advisor. Assessment results will be forwarded to the SAS Academic Advising for interpretation. Please call (719)549-2581 to schedule an appointment. We are pleased to offer our services to help students through the difficult task of declaring a major. We strive to help students choose a major that is a good fit based upon the students' interests and values. Current and prospective students are encouraged to contact our office to meet with a professional academic/career advisor to talk about our services. Please contact our main office, located in the Psychology Building Suite 232, at (719) 549-2581 to speak with an advisor. Academic Advising Program Staff Pam Chambers, Associate Director |
