The University Exploratory Studies Program (UESP) is the academic home at Oregon State University for undecided/exploratory students who have chosen to explore major options.

These advising efforts may include orientation/supporting student transitions, academic success strategies, goal identification, course and experiential learning planning, and career considerations for Oregon State University’s diverse population of students.

The advisor monitors student progress and engages the student in conversation around strategies and resources to enhance their academic experience and works to resolve experienced difficulties.

In addition to direct academic advising, advisors may support other areas such as assessment, career exploration, early warning/proactive interventions, international student advising, connection to university resources, and working with students in academic difficulty. All advisor positions support the primary mission of the University, the academic units, and academic services. This Academic Advising Specialist position reports to the Director of UESP and will work to uphold the mission and vision of the program.
