Each track offers a peer group of similar interests, curriculum choices that allow you to explore and test majors (and stay on track for a particular direction if you choose to), and general education courses that can be used if you choose to change direction.

What Each Track Offers
  • A peer group of students with similar interests
  • Curriculum choices that help students explore, test, and stay on track for that area of majors
  • General education courses students can use if they change direction
