How are Advisors Assigned and Can A Student Request a Change if his or her Interests Change? - counseling Psychology

    How are advisors assigned and can a student request a change if his or her interests change?
    Advisors are assigned by the Training Directors at the time of admission, based on research and practice interests of the student and faculty member. Students may request a change of advisor through the Administrative Coordinator of the Urban Education Program, Ms. Wanda Pruett-Butler. If a student's research interests shift during the program, a change in advisor for the purposes of dissertation direction is easily made. In fact, the faculty strongly encourages students to work with the faculty member most suited to assist the student on the dissertation.
