The faculty listed below provide advising within the Biology Department to supplement Academic Advising offered by the College of Arts and Sciences. Advising in the Biology Department is focused on the Biology curriculum, career advising, and any concerns you have about the Biology major. Please contact any of the faculty below to discuss any of these issues of particular concern for Biology majors.

If you need to verify overall graduation requirements, declare a major, or have other questions that are relevant to all students in the College of Arts and Sciences, contact Academic Advising in the Steele Building, instead: http://advising.unc.edu/
