Majors

What Is A Major?

A major is the area of study in which a student concentrates at college. There are core courses everyone takes, but most of a student’s college classes focus on their major.

Students can choose from hundreds of majors. The University of North Texas, for example, offers more than 150 undergraduate majors and more than 110 graduate-degree majors. Some colleges may not offer your most preferred major, so it is important that your choice of major lines up with the college of your choice.
