Advising

Students majoring in Cell Biology and Neuroscience (CBN) or are interested in majoring in CBN are strongly encouraged to meet with their assigned advisor frequently, at least once each semester.

Advisors in the Department of Cell Biology and Neuroscience are available to assist students who are declared majors, as well as students who have not yet declared the major. Transfer students are encouraged to meet with a departmental advisor as soon as possible.

Advisors should be contacted in advance for an appointment. Assignment of students to an advisor is based on the first letter of the student's last name, as follows:

All rising sophomores/juniors wishing to major in CBN are encouraged to take Fundamentals of Neurobiology (01:146:245) and Fundamentals of Cell and Developmental Biology (01:146:270) during their sophomore/junior year at Rutgers. Both courses are offered three times a year (fall, spring, and summer)

 Undergraduate students who wish to declare a major in CBN can submit the "Major and Minor Declaration/Change Form" online at mymajor.sas.rutgers.edu.
