Dr. Barbara Jasmine Adams, Director of Undergraduate Advising in the Department of Computer Science, retired in September, 2024.

Adams joined the Department in 2004 as an advising assistant before taking over as Director of Undergraduate Advising in December 2006. Adams quickly became legendary in the department for being able to read students’ minds, and had a knack for listening and giving top-notch advice.

“Hundreds, if not thousands, of computer science undergrads owe their academic success to Dr. Adams,” said Department Head Gregg Rothermel. “She has been an invaluable resource to the students and the department during her 20-year career at NC State, and she will be missed!”

Adams has bachelor’s degrees in psychology and education from Queens College of the City University of New York. She earned her doctorate in psychology from City University of New York in 1996.
