USC Major Requirements: How do I find them?

I'm looking into the different majors USC offers and trying to figure out which program aligns with my interests. How can I find the specific requirements for each major? Is there a comprehensive list somewhere on the USC website or should I look at each department's site individually?

It's a good idea to explore the different majors USC offers to find one that aligns with your interests. You can start by visiting USC's Undergraduate Programs webpage at https://catalogue.usc.edu, which has a list of all undergraduate majors and minors offered. This will give you a general overview of the major offerings.

Although USC has a catalog page which contains information on major requirements, to get the most up-to-date and accurate information, you should also visit each department's website. Department websites are tailored to their respective majors and provide more specific details, such as the sequence of courses you need to take, elective options, and possibilities for research or internships within that major. Keep in mind that some major requirements may vary between different schools or departments within USC.

Here's an example of the process you could follow:

1. Go to USC's Undergraduate Programs webpage.

2. Scroll through the list of majors, and identify the ones you're interested in.

3. Click on a major to view its catalog page, which summarizes the major requirements and curriculum.

4. Visit the department's website (you can usually find a link on the catalog page) to get more in-depth information on the major requirements.

Remember to also consult with your academic advisor once you start attending USC. They can help ensure you're on track with your chosen major's requirements and guide you on elective choices that align with your long-term goals. Good luck exploring your major options at USC!
