Overview

Individual majors are intended to create a unique program of study that otherwise does not exist on this campus individually or in a combination of majors and certificate programs. Students should carefully explore all University of Wisconsin–Madison majors and certificate programs before pursuing an individual major. A proposal that essentially parallels an existing Human Ecology or campus major will not be approved.

Outcomes

Graduates of the Individual Major (SOHE) at University of Wisconsin Madison earn a bachelor of science in human ecology. The major will match the approved proposal title, which must have a human ecology focus.
