BB and BMB students will each be assigned a member of our advising team as their primary advisor. In addition, students may work with other members of the advising team during drop-in sessions and events. We try to be as accessible as possible to students and support them in achieving their goals.
During the academic year Fall-Winter-Spring terms there are two types of advising available to current BB and BMB students: drop-in (Virtual by Zoom) and 30-minute appointments scheduled through Beaver Hub (in person with virtual upon request).
This form will walk you through the process of obtaining an override for Biochemistry & Biophysics courses (BB XXX). Please complete the entire form. You will receive an email from the BB Staff when the override is in place or if additional information is required. We can only issue overrides for BB courses for the upcoming or current term (not BI, MB BHS or CH--reach out to their departments).
There will be no drop-in advising for spring term. Please reach out to your assigned advisor with any questions.
Drop-in hours coming soon!
BB and BMB students should now use Beaver Hub > Success Team to look up their primary advisor and schedule on their Beaver Hub calendar.
Please book with your new primary advisor.
First year students must meet every term for strategic planning and to release academic advising hold.
Second and third students should meet twice (fall/winter or winter/spring or fall/spring). Registration holds will be lifted if you meet this criterion.
Seniors getting ready to graduate should meet Fall 2025 and then take BB 498 in winter term.
Please book with Tanushri Kumar or Autumn VanderLinden via these links.
Undergraduate students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of independent study credits with BB faculty members. Students need to obtain faculty permission and then a departmental override to register for these credit opportunities: research (BB 401), thesis (BB 403) reading and conference (BB 405) and internship credits (BB 410).
Advisor Lauren Dalton serves as a sounding board for third year BMB major Francisco Hernandez.
is open to Oregon State University students and faculty and is how we communicate with our biochemistry undergraduate community. If you have problems registering for the listserv, please contact Dr. Kari van Zee ([email protected])
