Major Minor
Manage episode 360353601 series 3002363
Whether you’re a high school senior, a high school junior, or a parent seeking to guide them, the question “So what’s your major?” can seem premature. After all, most colleges and universities don’t require a student to declare a major until the sophomore year. But reflecting on that question while still in high school can serve as a helpful exercise for students to contemplate what subjects they might like to study in college, and the extent to which that programming is offered at schools they are considering. In this encore episode from his previous podcast, The Search, Dartmouth Dean of Admissions Lee Coffin is joined by three members of the Dartmouth faculty — from the departments of engineering, philosophy and government — who provide advice on exploring academic interests at the collegiate level. They are Alexis Abramson, professor of engineering and Dean of the Thayer School of Engineering; Lisa Baldez, Professor of Government and Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies; and Sam Levy, Professor of Philosophy and Associate Dean of the Arts and Humanities.
