The Special Major Program is designed for those students who discover that none of the established majors fit their needs. Students who want to enter this program should make application to the Academic Dean by submitting a proposal for the Special Major. The proposal should include (1) a faculty advisory committee, (2) course work in two or more disciplines, with minimum of forty semester hours, and (3) completion or plans for completion of University requirements. Students seeking a special major should submit a proposal prior to attaining senior standing and no later than two regular semesters prior to graduation.
