Academic Advising

Each student will be assigned an academic adviser from the Department to support them throughout their studies at the University.

HIGHLIGHTS OF ACADEMIC ADVISING

• Students are required to meet in person with their Academic Adviser at least once a term, with one meeting scheduled before the course registration exercise each year. Otherwise, their access to the registration system will be denied.
• Before meeting the Academic Adviser for revision of the study plan, each student should input and save the study plan in Degree Works. The user guidelines of Degree Works are available here.
• Students are advised to read through the programme structure of their intake available on DACI website.
• Students are highly recommended to follow the study plan of your intake cohort and pay attention to important deadlines and also discuss the study plan with their academic advisor.
