Psychology Faculty Advisors

SPRING 2025

Need help thinking about your future in Psychology, but you are not sure where to begin? 

UCCS campus

Each undergraduate student in Psychology has an assigned advisor based on their last name, but students may seek advising from anyone in Psychology with whom they feel connected. These alphabetical assignments may change from year-to-year, but you are welcome to continue meeting with the same individual throughout your UCCS career. The goal of this is to help you figure out what you might do within Psychology for your future career plans as well as planning within the Psychology major. Your Psychology faculty advisor is specific to your major and does not duplicate the degree-planning functions of Academic Advising.
