The twenty-fourth Penn State Conference on Academic Advising is hosted by Penn State's Division of Undergraduate Studies in partnership with the Office of Undergraduate Education, Penn State’s University Advising Council, and The Mentor: Innovative Scholarship on Academic Advising.
The Penn State Conference on Academic Advising seeks to showcase novel research and practices that contribute to the field of academic advising. To meet the changing needs of students and to overcome the challenges facing higher education, academic advisers must examine and evolve their practice to incorporate new scholarship and innovative ideas. We invite you to reflect on advising practices and to contemplate new ways of enhancing the advising experience for all students. We look forward to conversation that examines the field of advising and its future.
