The Government Department utilizes a House-based advising system for concentrators. Each House is assigned a concentration adviser (CA) -- either a junior faculty member or an advanced graduate student -- to provide guidance about course selection, research, senior theses, and postgraduate opportunities. The CAs for 2019-2020 are as follows:
| If your House is... | Then your CA is... |
| Adams | Naima Green |
| Cabot | Gabriel Katsh |
| Currier | Gabriel Katsh |
| Dunster | Gabriel Koehler-Derrick |
| Eliot | Yon Soo Park |
| Kirkland | Harry Oppenheimer |
| Leverett | Aaron Watanabe |
| Lowell | Sarah James |
| Mather | David Ifkovits |
| Pforzheimer | Julie Anne Weaver |
| Quincy | Meredith Dost |
| Winthrop | Aaron Watanabe |
First-year students and sophomores interested in Government as well as students in Dudley House should contact the undergraduate office in CGIS Knfael to set up an advising meeting.
