Frequently Asked Questions

The class I need to get into is full. What do I do?

If it is an EMA or NE (NEEP) course, check with the Student Coordinator (Patricia Arnold, 144 ERB, 263-7038) to see if additional sections are being opened or if the registration limit will be raised. If the course is in a different department, check with their department office. Also see your advisor about other options available to you.

Where is my Professor's/TA's office and mailbox?

The faculty have offices in ERB. Mailboxes are located on the first floor near the loading dock. The EP TA's are primarily in Engineering Hall; their mail boxes are in the first-floor lobby area of Engineering Hall, west of the main entrance. Check your course syllabus for your Professor's and TA's office number and office hours.

What if I am sick and miss class?

Contact your TA or Professor and inform him/her if you will be missing more than one class meeting. You will be expected to make up any work that you miss. If a serious illness arises and you cannot attend classes for an extended period, contact the Engineering Student Services Office at 262-2473 or 262-3484.

Where is the lost & found?

The Engineering Hall Lost & Found office is located in Room 1035 Engineering Hall, phone 263-5586. The ERB Lost and Found office is located in Room 132C ERB, phone 263-1624.

I finished my final exam. Can the Department Office tell me my grade for the course?

The Department Office CANNOT give out final grades. Check with your Professor or TA. After final grades have been turned into the Registrar's office you can get your grades using your MyUW website.

What if I feel that my grade is unfair?

First, speak to your TA or Professor. If this does not resolve your problem, then see the faculty member in charge of your course. Office hours are posted on all faculty and TA doors. If you do not receive sufficient explanation for your grade, then you may make an appointment to speak with the Chair. See the Department office to set up a meeting time. Be sure to bring copies of any exams or quizzes in question with you.

Does the department have a website?
