Undergraduate Fields of Study
KEY:
- Majors are the primary undergraduate fields of study.
- Minors are fields studied in addition to the major.
- Specializations focus on a specific area within the major in preparation for a specific career path. For example, you cannot major in criminal justice at Texas Tech, but you can major in sociology with a specialization in criminology.
- Pre-Professional fields are a designation, not a major. For example, pre-law and pre-medicine are not majors. They designate a career path that will require a professional school after graduation. Pre-professional students who plan to earn a baccalaureate degree must choose a major in an academic discipline by their junior year and complete the courses required for admission into the professional school (e.g., law school, medical school). A program advisor can guide you in meeting the specific requirements for entry into a professional school (www.depts.ttu.edu/pphc, www.prelaw.ttu.edu).
