Office for Student Learning (OSL)

The Office for Student Learning, located in the Joseph R. Skeen Library, is a nexus for student academic support initiatives and includes the following services:

Peer Tutoring, Homework Help, Group Work, and Moral Support

The OSL offers drop-in peer tutoring and homework help for most undergraduate classes. Additionally, the OSL works with several of the academic departments to provide ways for students to rework test problems for better comprehension. Students looking for extra help with an assignment, seeking deeper understanding of a challenging subject, or wanting to join a study group are encouraged to contact the OSL team. Learning Coaches work together to provide a welcoming environment with resources for academic success. Services are free.

Academic and Professional Development Workshops

The OSL hosts workshops that complement academic coursework, with the goal of providing students with additional skills for academic success and for future professional careers in science and engineering. Workshop topics have included MATLAB, LATEX, Excel, Reading and Retention, Building a Competitive Resumé, Applying for Internships and REU Programs, and more.
