Teaching & Advising

Outstanding teaching is one of the hallmarks of the Wesleyan experience. All Wesleyan faculty teach and advise students, and advising is considered to be part of teaching. Faculty teach, in general, two courses each semester. Every incoming student is assigned a faculty advisor, and the advising process is the crucial structure which brings rigor and coherence to the open curriculum.
