Majors and Minors

For the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Music Education, and Bachelor of Science in Education degrees, the student must choose a major and minor, or a comprehensive major, selected from the departments/schools. The following factors should be considered:

1. That all minors can be joined with all majors in all degree programs.
2. Majors may not take a minor in the subject of the major unless the minor is an interdisciplinary minor.
3. Students in professional education programs with majors which require a minor must select minors with the assistance of their academic advisor. The department chairpersons, school directors, program coordinators, advisors, Student Success Center, and the Office of Career Services are available to counsel students on this matter.

4. No change in program should be made without prior approval of the student’s advisor.
