Academic Advising (Draft 2).png

Starting Semester I, 2026/2027, the Faculty of Science & Technology (FST) will implement mandatory academic advising for all continuing undergraduate students. An academic advising hold will be placed on student accounts, preventing registration until the hold is removed.

Purpose

The group advising sessions aim to address various issues and concerns students may encounter. These sessions are arranged by specific programmes and levels. Students pursuing joint majors must attend sessions from both departments.
