All undergraduate business majors are now required to complete an annual advising requirement each year. The requirement has two parts: an appointment with your academic advisor and one recommended item tied to your year in school. Requirements and deadlines differ by class year, so review the Annual Advising Requirement page to see what applies to you.
Students who don't complete the requirement by their deadline will have a registration hold placed on their record, which will block registration through Schedule Builder in a future quarter. Questions? Email gsm-undergradadvising@ucdavis.edu.

The program is still being designed, and Professor Gina Dokko would like your input. If you might be interested, please complete this brief survey to help us understand student interests and shape the program. If you’ve already submitted it, no need to do it again. Invitations to participate will come out in late November.
November 14 – 15 UC Davis Aggie Square in Sacramento
Hack the Harvest is an interdisciplinary UC Davis hackathon bringing together students from business, data science, computer science, agriculture, and other fields to tackle a real-world USDA challenge using data and AI.
No coding experience is required. Business students are especially encouraged to participate and can contribute strengths in strategy, markets, analysis, product thinking, impact assessment, problem-solving, and communicating solutions. Students will work in interdisciplinary teams to explore the challenge, analyze data, develop a solution, and pitch their ideas. Because students may need some time to form interdisciplinary teams and plan for the weekend, we encourage you to take a look soon if you are interested.
