Majors Offered

Registrar + Academics

Bryan College offers majors and options in the following programs. Detailed requirements for each major area of study are contained in the Academic Programs section of this Catalog. Each student must complete an Application for Major and receive approval from an academic division to be officially enrolled in a major program. This application for major is normally completed during the second semester of the sophomore year, but it may be completed earlier once a student has decided on a major.

The specific course requirements for each of these majors are listed under the appropriate disciplines in “Programs of Instruction.” In addition to course requirements, each department requires a senior assessment in the major, and the college requires a variety of general education assessments prior to graduation.
