Majors
Students may design interdisciplinary majors under the guidance of an academic advisor and by agreement of the chairs of the departments concerned. The major will involve a program flexible enough to satisfy the individual needs of the student but structured enough to insure a practical group of related courses that includes at least 24 upper-division units and a concentration in one area. The following interdisciplinary majors are examples of possible programs:
Humanities — A broad background in the humanities and a special competence in English, Modern Languages and Cultures, Philosophy, or Religious Studies.
Languages and Literature — Training in linguistics, literary criticism, English and foreign languages and their literatures.
Marketing Communication — Broad training in Business and Marketing that builds understanding of organizations and skill in the appropriate use of the media to promote products.
Philosophy and Religious Studies — A selection of courses from these two areas to bring focus to the intersection of faith, reason, spirituality, and ethics.
Software Engineering and Management — Courses from Computer Science and Business appropriate to entry-level technical management.
