Majors and Minors

• Major
• Minor
• Preprofessional Programs
• Concentration

The requirements for majors, minors, and concentrations are noted on the curriculum guides and in the school and departmental sections of this catalog.

Length of Program

The baccalaureate degree programs listed below can be completed in four years if the student:

1. declares the major during the first semester of enrollment,
2. successfully completes at least 31 hours per year, and
3. fulfills all degree requirements, including any specific requirements for the program, such as music ensembles and practical training.

Most majors can be completed in four years even though the student declares the major his or her sophomore year, but students should be aware that a delay in declaring one's major might require additional coursework. Students who change majors after initial enrollment should consult with the key advisor in the academic unit offering the major to determine the amount of time it will take to complete the new degree program.
