Each student will also have their own major (which may be in a subject totally unrelated to Global Change science), and will be responsible for taking classes for that field. SGC (and other College Park Scholars programs) resemble minors; a supplemental program with some requirements outside of the major, resulting in completion with a special citation on the student’s record. However, unlike a minor as traditionally conceived, the College Park Scholars Citation Program involves a wider variety of experiences than simply a set of classes. (SGC is officially supported by the College of Computer, Mathematics & Physical Sciences
