Advisement
For general information contact: Academic Advisement at Cal State L.A.
All faculty in the Philosophy Department are advisors, but some have special areas of expertise listed below. You do not need an appointment to see an advisor in philosophy; instead, check in the department office for their office hours. If your advisor is not teaching during a particular quarter, see any other advisor you want or contact the Directors for suggestions.
