If you're wandering through the wide selection of majors offered by Gonzaga University, twelve that come to forefront due to their popularity are: Business Administration, Mechanical Engineering, Biology, Nursing, Psychology, Civil Engineering, Sport Management, Human Physiology, Journalism and Broadcasting, Environmental Studies, Organizational Leadership, and International Relations.

The Business Administration major is quite popular, offering concentrations in areas like Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Finance, and Marketing. For those looking into the engineering field, the Mechanical and Civil Engineering majors are renowned, with hands-on classes and opportunities for internships.

Biology and Nursing are sought-after for those interested in the health sector. Their Human Physiology major is also a standout—students dive deep into the understanding of human body functionality, which provides a solid footing for those looking into physical therapy, medicine, or health sciences.

Their Journalism and Broadcasting program offers students the chance to explore electronic media practices, storytelling, and investigative journalism techniques. This is a unique point for Gonzaga, as not many university programs offer such detailed courses in this field.

If you lean towards the social sciences, International Relations might catch your interest with its multidisciplinary approach to understanding global issues. For sports enthusiasts, the Sport Management program lends insights into the business aspects behind the sports industry and opens up a world of career opportunities in sport event management, sport marketing, or sport public relations.

Lastly, the Environmental Studies and Organizational Leadership programs stand out by exploring the interdisciplinary field of environmental science and refining leadership skills, respectively.

As you select your major, make sure that the program aligns with your interests and career goals. Look for opportunities that the major brings about such as internships, research projects, faculty mentorship, and extracurricular clubs or societies. You can speak to current students or alumni of the program, or set up a meeting with a faculty advisor, who can provide more insight into the curriculum and help you analyze if it's a good fit for you. Don't forget to consider the flexibility of the program too, especially if you're interested in studying abroad or having a minor along with your major.
