Build bridges between subjects.<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

At St. Mary\u2019s College, students who are interested in more than one subject can create a student-designed major (SDM). This lets them mix classes from different areas to focus on a topic they care about. It\u2019s a way to go deep into a subject while also learning from different points of view.<\/p>\n

These majors help students ask big questions and solve complex problems. Like other majors, SDMs include classes that lead to research, internships, and a final project called the St. Mary\u2019s Project.<\/p>\n

Some students build their majors from programs like environmental studies, neuroscience, or women, gender & sexuality studies. Others create unique paths.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>
