how are liberal arts majors at Duke? (like sociology, religious studies, and other humanities)
Duke is ranked #12th and their liberal arts programs all fall in line. Just a quick view into Niche and CV rankings shows that their liberal arts majors are highly coveted. They are ranked #8 in the country for Education, Philosophy, Performing Arts, Chemistry #7 for Psychology, #4th for Economics, #2 for Political Science, #19 for History, and #21 for English, #15 Sociology. Although they are highly ranked for religious studies I think it is a very unpopular major. The least popular undergraduate majors are the following:
Nat Resources/Conservation - 1.91%
Ethnic/Gender Studies -1.19%
Communication - 0.04%
Education and English, both - 1.96%
Interdisciplinary Studies - 0.30%
Philosophy and Religion - 1.17%
Visual performing arts - 2%
Hope that is helpful

thanks! this is really helpful because I'm interested in religious studies (as you said, there isn't much info on that field) and I'm thinking of pursuing it as one of my majors at least for the first year of college.
