Overview

Students create this major by combining courses from two or more departments into an integrated field of study with a clear liberal arts focus.

There is no ad hoc major within the Zicklin School of Business or the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs.

Contain thirty to thirty-three (30-33) credits, with at least twenty-four (24) liberal arts credits.

Contain courses from at least two different Weissman departments, with a minimum of three (3) courses [9-12 credits] from each of those two departments.

Contain no more than three (3) non-liberal arts courses (only Zicklin courses from the approved list may be included).
