The student success and career advising team in the College of Engineering and Computer Science has been selected to receive a 2026 Outstanding Advising Program Award from the Global Community for Academic Advising (NACADA).

The advising team was recognized specifically for their “Holistic, Team-Based Advising Model for Undergraduate Retention and Success.” The model pairs every undergraduate student in the college with three advisors: a student success advisor, a career advisor and a faculty advisor.

The model is designed to give students dedicated support across every aspect of the college experience and prepare them for strong career outcomes.
