Degree Works is a web-based advising tool and degree audit program. It allows a student
and faculty advisor to view up-to-date information about a student’s progress towards
graduation. The student and advisor can see which major, minor, specialization, and
general education requirements have already been fulfilled and which ones still need
to be completed. AP, transfer credit, and study abroad credit will all be visible
as well.
To access Degree Works,
- Go to stonybrook.edu/degreeworks
- Select Stony Brook from the drop-down menu
- Sign in with your NetID and NetID password
