Organizing Theme 2009-2010
|
Overview
The Organizing Theme Major is best suited for the self-motivated student who has a well-defined intellectual curiosity for a topic involving multiple disciplines and which cannot be accommodated by the already existing majors, double majors, or interdepartmental majors at Union College. The Organizing Theme Major encourages the exploration of thematic connections across disciplines, and must therefore incorporate courses from at least three different departments (with no more than four courses from any one department to count toward the major). The student must choose and work with an advisor (or advisors) who is supportive of the student’s proposed Organizing Theme Major and has a clear understanding of what the project entails.
For more information, go to the Organizing Theme site and thoroughly read through the materials. If you still have questions, contact Michelle Chilcoat, Chair of the Organizing Theme Committee.
