An Advisor is a member of a faculty, whose role is to help and guide students who are candidates for a Thesis or dissertation program, helping them select coursework, as well as shaping, refining and directing the student's choice of discipline in which they will write a dissertation. The Advisors are associated with the student record for tracking and reporting purposes. Reports can be saved, printed and emailed as required. ## Assign the Role of Advisor to a Contact Refer to the [Assign Roles to a Contact](/home/paradigm-knowledge-base/providers-and-contacts/workflows/contacts/assign-roles-to-a-contact.md) workflow and select the **Advisor** as an assigned role. The Contact or Staff member that you want to be associated with as an Advisor of a Student record should have that role in their record.
