Major and Major-Related Requirements

At Utica University, students can select from a variety of majors in the fields of humanities, science and mathematics, behavioral studies, management, and health sciences. The purposes of Utica University’s major programs are to enable students to concentrate a substantial portion of their college studies in the academic areas most closely related to their specific interests, and to permit them to pursue advanced study and research in the academic disciplines they find most interesting and challenging.

The major programs provide the academic and professional education students will use to pursue a career in their special fields of interest. All available programs are described in the section of this catalog titled Programs of Study .

A student should select a major before the end of their second year or before they earn 60 total credits, whichever comes first. Students may select a minor (in consultation with their major advisor) any time before the semester in which they will have graduated. Students can contact the Registrar’s Office to declare a major and/or minor.
