Connect with an advisor!

Maximize your college experience with support that grows alongside you.

At Boise State, advising isn’t just about checking boxes. It’s about helping you explore big questions, find your path, and build a degree that aligns with your goals. The department works in tandem with the College of Arts and Sciences (COAS) Advising Services to help all students feel supported in their studies. However, every faculty member in the Sociology Department is here to support you in some way — and we encourage you to connect early and often.

We believe advising is a shared effort — all of our faculty participate. But if you’re feeling unsure, these advisors are ready to help you get started.
