Undergraduate Advisement

As soon as you decide that you will be a chemistry major your should come to see a departmental advisor. Freshman and sophomores (under 60 hours) should see Dr. Davon Kennedy (Davon@gsu.edu; 404-413-5530), Ms. Marquesha Jackson (chemugcoord@gsu.edu; 404-413-5500) or Dr. Doyle Barrow (dbarrow@gsu.edu; 404-413-5490). This advisement is in addition to any advisement by the honors program or academic advisement.

Students over 60 hours must see Dr. Barrow (dbarrow@gsu.edu; 404-413-5490) to plan the junior and senior year coursework. Many courses at the 3000/4000 levels have limited offerings so students who do not get advisement at 60 hours are much more likely to delay their graduation by a semester or more. Dr. Barrow has a sign-up sheet for the current week outside his door. Availability of appointments does vary from semester to semester.

Pre-medical or pre-dental student should also speak with Dr. Keith Pascoe (chekop@gsu.edu; 404-413-5536), the pre-medical and pre-dental advisor.

If you plan to apply to the Georgia State University graduate chemistry program see the Graduate Coordinator, Will Lovett, for requirements (chemgradstudent@gsu.edu: 404-413-5525). If you are planning to apply to a graduate program elsewhere, you will be working with your research advisor.
