STEM-E Pathway Counseling
STEM-E (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math & the Environment) Pathway counselors are available to help you achieve your goals! STEM counseling is for students who plan to major in a STEM field such as Biology, Computer Science, Engineering, Environmental/Earth Science, Geology, Chemistry, Physics, Math, and/or are interested in continuing on to a professional program such as Medical, Dental, Pharmacy or Veterinary School.
All STEM Pathway students should start by seeing a STEM Counselor.
STEM Drop-in Counseling is offered in-person in the STEM Center, 3906. Check-in with Mary or Muhhamad at the back desk to sign-up. Speak with a STEM Drop-in Counselor for up to 20 minutes for help with:
