Use the advising hub to familiarize yourself with the major and to make the major
and advising process easier for both you and your advisor. Many pieces of advice your
advisor would have for you are probably already on the advising hub and in these Frequently Asked Questions! All students with a major in this department will be notifed of their assigned advisor
at the beginning of the semester. Contact the Math Department at [email protected] for further assistance.
This page contains some suggestions to help students succeed in their courses. An
article by Professor Zucker is appended at the end of the page. Read it!

Our advisors will advise you on the math degree, but the College of Science Student
Success Center (CoS SSC) provides advising on everything else (including GEs). All
students are welcome to stop by for assistance and information regarding their College
of Science major and related SJSU academic and student services.
If you are interested in becoming a student member of the professional mathematics
organizations, check their websites for more information. Note that the SJSU Math
Department is an institutional member of SIAM so that graduate students may join SIAM
at no charge.
