New Major: Actuarial Studies
Actuaries are the 12th fastest growing occupation in the United States, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. To keep up with this demand and provide students with a lucrative career path, the Department of Mathematics and Statistics unveiled a new Bachelor of Arts in Actuarial Studies.
New Minor: Sports Engineering
One of our newest minors, sports engineering, is the first available for undergraduate students in the U.S. It hits the sweet spot with students who love sports and also aspire to be engineers.Digital Viewbook
We brought our counselors, web team and content creators (and a ton of stakeholders all across campus) together this summer to completely turn our digital viewbook on its head. What we ended up with is a real labor of love, and we're excited to present our new YOUbook. This completely customizable digital viewbook was designed to give users the power to tailor the experience and explore the things that matter most to their college search, personally - like majors, clubs and organizations, and more. Check it out for yourself and share the link with your students!
