You may nominate yourself or others.  We will reach out to nominated students to see if they are willing to serve as the student speaker.

CEE Ugrad Weekly: AUT21 Updates | Mentoring Sessions | Graduating Seniors | Connecting with your advisers

Hello CEE Majors,

We’ve got a few updates below but I wanted to reiterate the importance of your degree audit. Your Degree Audit (DARS) is the tool that University of Washington uses to track your progress to degree. If there are requirements missing from your degree audit, the University will not grant your degree.

So, if you have taken  STAT 311 to satisfy your statistics requirement, you need to make sure that STAT 311 is showing up when you refresh your DARS.  This is true of all degree requirements that appear on your DARS.

I purposefully chose STAT 311 to use as an example because STAT 311 is approved for statistics at the dept level only. DARS will not show STAT 311 unless you have communicated with one of your CEE advisers that you have taken STAT 311 and that it is not showing up on your DARS.

To run a fresh degree audit, use the MyPlan “Audit Degree (DARS)” option.  (We do not recommend using the MyPlan “Audit Plan” option as it misses some of the nuance in our degree programs)

Read about updates to courses, updates to Senior Year Faculty Mentoring sessions, important deadlines, mental health resources, and graduating info. As always, you know how to find us if you have questions or items to discuss!

CEE Ugrad Weekly: CEE Career Fair, Graduation Reminders, EPE Mentorship Opportunity, and More

Hello CEE Majors – We hope you are feeling settled into winter quarter.  As always, we are here for you if you want to discuss your academic plan/degree requirements, talk about how to get involved outside of the classroom, discuss academic successes or difficulties, or simply just to say hello/meet your advisers.

In addition, here are some important reminders and notices we’d like you to take a look at:

Career Fair Prep

  • The 15th Annual CEE Career Fair is taking place on Thursday, January 28, 2021 from 1-4pm.
  • We will be sending out detailed registration and prep info by the end of the week but the UW Career & Internship Center has a number of workshops starting today that can help you prepare.
  • We recommend that you touch base with your instructors if you have a synchronous class that might CEE Career Fair. Your CEE Faculty/Instructors have been notified of the potential for class conflicts but letting them know directly once you have your appointments scheduled is recommended.

Graduation Reminders:

  • Refresh your degree audit: Now that your WIN21 schedule is set, make sure to refresh your degree audit. If there is anything that looks off, or you have questions, you can email ceadvice@uw.edu or see an adviser.
  • If you are planning to finish your degree requirements in WIN21, SPR21 or SUM21, and have not applied to graduate, please email ceadvice@uw.edu so we can start this process.

College of Engineering Mentorship Opportunity – EPE Program

The College of Engineering’s Engineering Peer Educator (EPE) program is a fantastic opportunity for current engineering undergraduates to gain valuable leadership experience while helping the 2021 incoming class of Engineering Undeclared students succeed in transitioning to college! EPEs mentor and support first-year students by facilitating the GEN ST 199 component of Engineering FIGs in Autumn 2021. Undergraduate students with skills in collaboration and interpersonal communication who are passionate about giving back to the engineering community are encouraged to apply!

S/NS Grading Option

You will have the option to change your grade to S/NS for AUT20 after the Nov 17th deadline since AUT20 has been designated as an “Extraordinary Circumstances Quarter.”

Information on this process and policy can be found at this link. Look for the heading “Extraordinary Circumstances Quarter S/NS-Numeric Grading Change Request.”

Additional Writing Requirement

Information on how to satisfy your additional writing requirement can be found on our CEE Student News Blog here. If you are trying to create a “W by arrangement,” we recommend trying to contact an instructor prior to the beginning of the quarter (For WIN21, it would be a good idea to connect now).
