Contemporary Arts (Contract Major)

A contract major is a personalized individual course of study.  While there are delineated requirements of number and level of coursework, each program will be unique to the student’s particular interests.  Students must consult with a faculty advisor to determine the required courses.  Further information is available in the online catalog major description. Three writing intensive courses are required in the major and/or school core (examples are marked by WI designation in the plan below). Consult with your advisor for specific details.
