What majors does Tufts offer?

I'm exploring my major options and am curious about what Tufts University has to offer. Does anyone have information on the range of majors available there, especially in the humanities and sciences?

Tufts University has a diverse range of majors for students to choose from, spanning both the humanities and sciences.

In the humanities, there are many interesting options such as English, Philosophy, History, Art History, Classics, and Religion, to name a few. There are also interdisciplinary humanities options like International Literary and Visual Studies, and Film and Media Studies.

On the science side, Tufts offers traditional majors like Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Environmental Science, and Physics. There's also flexibility within these departments to specialize in different areas. For example, the Biology department offers a range of tracks including Ecology, Evolution and Behavior, Cell and Molecular Biology, and Environmental/Biotech, among others.

In addition, Tufts is known for combining humanities and sciences in their offerings. Programs like Biopsychology, Cognitive & Brain Science, and Environmental Studies speak to this.

Also worth noting is the option of designing your own major through the interdisciplinary studies program if you have a specific field of interest that doesn't fit neatly into any one existing department, which may be something you want to look into as well.

Finally, Tufts emphasizes "dual-degree" opportunities where you can combine distinct fields of study. An example is the BFA + BA/BS combined degree with the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts, if you're potentially interested in an arts along with a humanities or science major.

So there's a significant breadth and depth in terms of major options at Tufts—all to support students to build an academic path that suits them best!
