Health and Natural Sciences Student Community
  10 Weeks To Go: Find out about Majors!

Some students already know what they hope to major in… but many students will explore extensive opportunities during their first few semesters.  The U of M offers specific resources to assist you throughout each stage of your decision.  Your CLA adviser is glad to talk with you about any questions!


“MAJOR” RESOURCES


CLA How-To Guide : Choose a Major  
Walk through this online, step-by-step guide to consider resources based on where you are personally in making this decision.

ID 1201 : Major and Career Exploration
Take this 2 credit course (taught by the Career & Community Learning Center), to focus on ‘self-assessment’ and ‘exploring options.’

University Catalog
Browse and compare all U of M majors and minors:  1) Enter a keyword, 2) Select a program type, and 3) Search!


Department Directory
Learn more about major/minor areas through the department.  First browse their website.  Then, talk with a departmental adviser before actually deciding on that major.  You can formally declare the major later (sometime before completing 60 credits).

CLA Community Majors
Many students are assigned to the Health & Natural Sciences Student Community because they have expressed interest in one of our Community majors.

Special Events
Look for information sessions and workshops related to specific interests and majors.  Register if needed, and mark your calendar!
