What majors does UIowa offer?

I'm exploring my options for universities and am interested in the University of Iowa. Could someone provide an overview of the majors UIowa offers and any unique programs that stand out? I'm still deciding on a major.

The University of Iowa (UIowa) offers a wide variety of majors across an array of disciplines. They have over 200 areas of undergraduate study, meaning students of all interests are sure to find a program that suits their educational goals.

Here are some examples of the various fields:

1. Arts and Humanities: English, Art and Art History, Classics, Cinema, Dance, Music, Theatre Arts, and so forth.

2. Business and STEM Fields: Business Analytics, Finance, Management, Marketing, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Environmental Sciences, and Mathematics to name a few.

3. Healthcare and Human services: Nursing, Public Health, Social Work, Athletic Training, Therapeutic Recreation, Physical Therapy, and Clinical Laboratory Sciences.

4. Interdisciplinary Programs: American Studies, Environmental Policy & Planning, Gender, Women's, and Sexuality Studies, International Relations, and Linguistics.

One unique program at UIowa is the Iowa Writers' Workshop. It's one of the oldest and most prestigious creative writing programs in the U.S. UIowa was the first university in the U.S. to offer a creative writing degree, and the program has produced many famous writers. If you're interested in writing, this could be a great opportunity.

UIowa also offers an array of pre-professional programs, such as Pre-Law and Pre-Med, which provide structured guidance for students who plan to attend professional schools after their undergraduate studies.

Remember, when choosing a major, it's essential to consider your interests, career goals, and the opportunities given by the program, such as internships, practicums, or research opportunities. It's okay if you don't have a specific major in mind yet; many students start college as undecided, and UIowa has resources to help students explore different fields and find the right fit.
