1
A major that studies individual and collective behavior, the reasons for those behaviors, and the analysis and treatment of behavior problems and disorders.
Psychology
A general major that focuses on the scientific study of matter and energy, and the formulation and testing of the laws governing the behavior of the matter-energy continuum.
Physics
A general major that focuses on the scientific study of the composition and behavior of matter, including its micro- and macro-structure, the processes of chemical change, and the theoretical description and laboratory simulation of these phenomena.
Chemistry
A major that focuses on agricultural principles and practices that, over the long term, enhance environmental quality, make efficient use of nonrenewable resources, integrate natural biological cycles and controls, and are economically viable and socially responsible; and that may prepare individuals to apply this knowledge to the solution of agricultural and environmental problems.
Ecology
A major that studies plants, including their function, relationship with other organisms, growth habits, and appearance.
Botany
A major that focuses on the scientific study of extinct life forms and associated fossil remains, and the reconstruction and analysis of ancient life forms, ecosystems, and geologic processes.
Paleontology
A major that studies the the effects of drugs and chemicals on biologic processes within living organisms.
Pharmacology
A major that focuses on the scientific study of carcinogens; the onset of malignancy in cells, tissues, blood, and organs; the genetics of cancer; the anatomy and physiology of cancer cells; and the study of cancer behaviors and treatments.
Oncology/Cancer Biology
A major that focuses on the scientific study of disease, disability, and trauma patterns within and across populations and the development of health management mechanisms to prevent and control disease outbreaks and injurious behaviors.
Epidemiology
A major that investigates the immune system and the function it plays in protecting the body from infectious diseases.
Immunology
A major that studies the Ocean, including marine organisms, ocean currents, waves, and the geology of the ocean floor.
Marine Science/Oceanography
A major that focuses on the scientific study of the properties and behavior of atomic nuclei. Includes instruction in nuclear reaction theory, quantum mechanics, energy conservation, nuclear fission and fusion, strong and weak forces, nuclear modeling, nuclear decay, nucleon scattering, pairing, photon and electron reactions, the physics of nuclear effects, statistical methods, and research equipment operation and maintenance.
Nuclear Physics
A major that focuses on the scientific study of the chemical properties and behavior of the silicates and other substances forming, and formed by geomorphological processes of the earth and other planets.
Geochemistry
A major that focuses on the scientific and mathematical formulation and evaluation of the physical laws governing, and models describing, matter-energy phenomena, and the analysis of related experimental designs and results.
Theoretical and Mathematical Physics
A major that studies old age, the process of aging, and the particular problems of old people using the knowledge and methodologies of the social sciences, psychology and the biological and health sciences.
