Undergraduate Day Programs


The university has 15 academic departments, each headed by a department chair. Each department has responsibility for one or more majors or degree programs, concentrations within the major and minors. Academic departments are assembled into divisions under four academic deans. Each dean is the chief academic and administrative officer for their division.

In the following section, the requirements for majors and minors are outlined under each discipline. Required and elective courses in each discipline are defined to help students with course selection.

Academic advisors should always be consulted to ensure that courses are taken in the appropriate sequence and are fulfilling all the requirements needed for graduation. Students should make an appointment with the department chairperson for special information about application for admission into a particular major or minor.
