IUB works to optimize academic advising for student success.
Forward momentum on the strategic plan continued over the past month. The undergraduate first-year experience working groups are now up and running, and the advising and experiential learning working groups will launch in the coming days. Simultaneously, units and departments across campus are working toward new support for the areas of transformational research identified in the plan.
The time has come to submit nominations for the next Patten Lecturer, who will deliver two public lectures and meet with interested faculty and students in classes and informal gatherings during the 2024-25 academic year.
This fall, the IUB community is working to support students in better familiarizing and adapting to IUB's core academic goals and mission, increasing student retention and progression through degree programs, and ultimately, improving graduation rates and reducing time to degree.
