Student Advisement and Support

Departmental Hours

In-Person: Thursdays, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
Location: 3137 Ingersoll Hall

Remote: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
Phone: 718.951.5416 or
E-mail: Ms. Haughton

Remote Advisement Sign-Up Procedure

We will create a weekly schedule of remote advisement appointments. If you wish to schedule an advisement session, please e-mail Ms. Haughton to request an appointment. If this is your first advisement session, you need to schedule a 30-minute session. If you have been advised before, a 15-minute session should suffice.

Toward the end of each week, Ms. Haughton will review all requests for advisement and then will send an outlook invitation to those students for their respective appointments. When you receive this invitation, you will need to either accept or decline the invitation right away. Once accepted, that time and day will be secured for your advisement session and the remote access information for the advisement session will be sent to you When Ms. Haughton sends you the invitation, she will send you a course checklist document for you to fill out indicating the degree required classes you've had to date. It's very important that you fill this out and send it back to Ms. Haughton right away so that professors Cherrier and Chamberlain can review it prior to your advisement session.

Note: If you cannot keep your appointment, let Ms. Haughton know right away so the time slot can be freed up for another student.

Requesting Permission to Register for a Class

Requests for permission for a student to register for a class that requires instructor consent must come from the professor who is granting the permission. The student must e-mail the professor to make the initial request. Requests coming to the Chair or Ms. Haughton from students, and not the professor, will not be considered.

Students should include the following information in their e-mail to the professor for this request:

  • Student name and EMPLID
  • semester for which the permission request is being made
  • course number and name,
  • a brief explanation/justification for the request

The professor will then make a decision based on the information/justification provided and will forward the student request e-mail to Ms. Haughton and will include in this forwarded e-mail their decision to either approve or disapprove (the Chair must be cc’d). If the professor has approved the request, then Ms. Haughton will input the request into the system and notify both the student and the professor when it has been entered into the system.

Note: A separate request for permission must be generated for each class for which a permission to register is being requested.

Want to Make Sure Your Program of Study in EES Best Supports Your Postgraduate Goals? Want to Graduate on Time?

You should schedule at least two advisement sessions per semester. Receiving regular advisement is critical to your successful matriculation through the EES undergraduate program.

Regular advisement sessions will serve to ensure that you're taking EES courses in the correct sequence such that it will enhance your success in EES courses and in the program as a whole and will keep you on track and "glitch-free" for your targeted graduation date. These sessions will also help you to develop a programmatic matriculation plan that best supports and aligns with your postgraduate goals.

If you are new or "new-ish" to our program, you will need schedule your initial advisement sessions with either Professor Cherrier (EES chair) or Professor Chamberlain (EES deputy chair). After these initial sessions, they will assign you an adviser who best aligns with your academic interests and postgraduate goals.

The Fall 2021 advisement hours for professors Cherrier and Chamberlain are as follows:

Professor Cherrier

Monday, noon–1 p.m.
Tuesday, 10–11 a.m.
*Or by appointment

Professor Chamberlain

Monday, 1–2 p.m.
Thursday, 11 a.m.–noon
*Or by appointment

*If the listed appointment times conflict with your class schedule, Ms. Haughton will work with you to find an alternate day/time.

More Information

Please review before your advisement session:

  • Degree Maps—information on EES undergraduate programs and recommended course sequences
  • 3-Year Course Offering for Earth and Environmental Sciences Majors
  • EES B.A. and EES B.S. requirements in Brooklyn College Bulletin

Hope this helps—we look forward to seeing you and help guide you toward your successful graduation!

Student Directions for Updating E-mail Addresses

Below we’ve provided the steps for making sure students preferred email addresses have been recorded in both the Brooklyn College and CUNYfirst systems (they're different so you have to check and, if necessary, change in both!).

Brooklyn College’s Webcentral

Students need to check what e-mail address is subscribed with BC Webcentral. If the student never provided their alternate e-mail address, their BC e-mail will be used as the default. They can navigate to My Info, My Personal Info, Personal E-mail: ADD

Here are the steps for the students to check if they are enrolled in those alerts or not:

  • Login to BC Webcentral Portal
  • Navigate to My Info; Manage your Communication Preferences
  • Press “Update your e-mail and text message subscriptions” button
  • Make sure “News from institutional departments” is checked off

CUNYfirst

Students need to update your e-mail address in CUNYfirst AND they need to also indicate that it is their preferred e-mail address. Instructions for how to do so are below.

  • Navigate to Self Service > Student Center.
  • Your account information will be displayed on your Student Center screen. In the Personal Information section, use the drop down box to select “E-mail Addresses”. After selecting the option, click the >> button.
  • Add your new e-mail address under “other” and check the preferred button.

If you are having issues updating, please e-mail esc@brooklyn.cuny.edu.
