Meta Majors
Our Meta Majors help you make smarter choices!
Individual majors are grouped under larger academic umbrellas as collections within a career area. You will have a clear pathway to graduation with no wasted time and unnecessary courses!
This process helps you make connections between your studies and different career tracks. Identifying with a Meta Major will help you choose a degree based on your interests, skills, and knowledge; and then help you choose classes that relate to your specific degree to efficiently meet your academic goals.
Get personal academic counseling. You can make an appointment in person at the Counseling Center in Student Services (1st Floor) or by phone.
