Choosing your path

We offer more than 60 courses of study, including 38 majors and 49 minors, pre-professional and cooperative programs in the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences. If your academic exploration leads you down a path that doesn't quite fit a program we already offer, we'll help you design your own major.
