Academic Support

As an admitted student in the School of Public Administration, you work with your academic advisor, a faculty member, to plan your program of study based upon your academic and career goals. Your academic advisor is available to discuss your interests and match them with your program's curriculum. In addition, SPA's Academic Program Coordinator is available to discuss courses and concentrations. 

Starting On the Right Path

At the beginning, you will work with the Academic Program Coordinator to learn about the beginning classes, orientation, and registration. You may also seek advice on course sequencing and course load.

Graduation

During your last semester, you will apply to graduate. The UNO Graduate Studies Office and the Academic Program Coordinator work closely to ensure all courses have successfully been completed and requirements have been met.
