Major Pathways
Pathways
Following a pathway is an optimal route for degree completion. Several factors may affect a student’s ability to follow a specific pathway, including the timing of major declaration, course availability, course demand, course scheduling conflicts, and faculty availability. Adjustments may need to be made to the pathway as students work toward degree completion.
Pathway can be used as a resource and preparation guide, however, a student’s academic adviser is the best resource for planning course schedules.
