The College of Engineering and Computer Science operates two advisory boards, one that services the engineering program, and one that services the computer science program. The boards provide the college with independent and critical assessment feedback on the curricula and facilities while promoting the needs, trends, and challenges of business and industry. Their primary objectives are to:
  • Provide the college feedback about how to prepare its students through coursework and related experiential education for success in their careers, higher education and in life.
  • Provide the college critical assessment and feedback on the curricula and facilities while promoting the needs, trends, and challenges of business/industry.
  • Identify and promote paid and unpaid internships for college students.
  • Provide training and professional development opportunities for college faculty.
  • Provide and solicit assistance from the business and industry community in funding special needs of the college programs.
  • Advocate on behalf of McNeese State University regarding the engineering and computer science programs.
The College of Engineering and Computer Science Advisory Boards meet on the McNeese State University campus in April and October.

Ashley Bass

I am a McNeese graduate with a bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Science and a concentration in Child and Family Studies. As a student, I competed on the rodeo team and served on the SGA board. I earned my master’s degree in 2022 from the University of South Dakota in Educational Administration and Leadership with a concentration in Adult and Higher Ed. I have over 13 years of experience in adult education and 20 years of educational experience.

My favorite part of being a Freshman Advisor is helping students navigate their new life routine as a college freshman by offering support with in-person office visits or by email to help students meet their goals. I always remind students of my favorite BB King quote – “Education is one thing no one can ever take away from you.”  I believe that supporting students is vital to a student's success.

In my spare time, I raise registered American Brahman cattle, and I enjoy all the "country girl" things like hunting, fishing, growing a garden and cooking.
