Individualized area of concentration

A student with special interests not met by any of the established majors may submit a proposal for an individualized area of concentration, with approval from the Dean of Faculty and two faculty advisors from disciplinary areas related to the proposed concentration. An individualized area of concentration must meet these criteria: the coursework must include study in depth of at least one area of knowledge; the capabilities of the student and the resources of the institution must be sufficient to sustain the intended program; the program must be approved by the end of the student’s fifth semester, or its equivalent; and the program must meet all the goals and expectations of the concept of a major and a contextual and support area.

An individualized area of concentration must include eight to ten courses from a single discipline (including a senior project) and no fewer than two courses from any other discipline.
