What kinds of courses create an individualized major or minor?
The major is intended to fit your interests within a unified plan of study. Ten courses that you like do not necessarily add up to a major. Interdepartmental programs are for students whose interests do not fit inside a single department. Some proposals are turned down because students have unwittingly constructed a “watered-down” version of a major which appears to circumvent a few required courses in an existing major. Your faculty advisers, as well as advisers in Lattimore 206, will help you talk over these issues. Keep in mind, for example, that the Health and Society major began as an individualized major at UR. Strive for similar models of coherence and cohesiveness.
