Advising

The criminology and criminal justice studies programs have been designed to allow each student, in consultation with a CCJS faculty advisor, to develop an individualized program of study.  CCJS faculty advisors are full time tenure and tenure-track faculty members.  CCJS majors and minors should meet with their assigned CCJS faculty advisor regularly (at least once every semester) to make sure that they are progressing in their academic programs on schedule.

Before requesting an academic advising meeting with your assigned CCJS faculty advisor, please review your Academic Requirements Report.  You will also find the answers to the questions we get asked the most at the bottom of this page. 

Assigned Advisors

The Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice Studies assigns CCJS faculty advisors by students’ last name.  The current CCJS faculty advisors are assigned as follows:    

  • A-E: Dr. Emily K. Asencio
  • F-L: Dr. Bryan Burton
  • M-Q: Dr. Diana Grant
  • R-Z: Dr. Anastasia Tosouni

Students can meet with their assigned CCJS faculty advisor for academic advising during their office hours or schedule an appointment on a different day or time.  Note that CCJS faculty advisors are not available for academic advising during finals week and during the summer and winter breaks.  If you need help during the finals week or during the summer or winter break, please contact the academic advisors at the university's Advising Central.
