Career trajectories for majors link directly to essential 21st century worker competencies, experiences, and perspectives introduced through our curriculum.

Education within and Beyond the Classroom

• When our students tell us they are ?hooked? by the major, they cite a variety of reasons. Some say it is the substantive content of the disciplines, others say the chance to apply an understanding of society and culture to human betterment. All majors learn through traditional classroom courses, electives that involve relevant field trip and applied assignments, internships, full-semester community-based courses and study abroad led by our faculty. We have courses that introduce students to fundamental theories and research methods and offer a curriculum with increasingly challenging opportunities to apply both. The program of study culminates in a capstone senior project involving original research presented at an end-of-semester gathering.
