Individualizing a Traditional Major

Students may individualize one of the majors offered by the colleges if they wish to develop a cross-disciplinary concentration within their major or relate that major more closely to a specific career choice. Students are advised to discuss their proposal with the department chair at an early date. (If the reason for wanting to individualize a major is career-related, students will also want to check at Career Services to determine what special preparation might be relevant for that intended career.) Proposals to individualize a traditional major should be completed at the time students ordinarily apply for acceptance as a degree candidate (spring semester of the sophomore year). Forms and detailed procedures are available from the registrar. The academic dean of the student's college gives final approval to a proposal to individualize a traditional major. The basis of the individualized traditional major must be structured from one or more of the majors (see listing) offered at the colleges.
