A Major Map is a layout of required courses in a given program of study, including critical courses and suggested course sequence to ensure a clear path to graduation.

What is a second major?
If you are a student in the College of Arts and Sciences, you may complete a second
major within the College of Arts and Sciences or the School of Music (Bachelor of
Arts track only). You must complete all collegiate requirements (including general
education courses and special departmental requirements) as well as the major requirements
for the second major. In cases where one major is part of a Bachelor of Arts program
and the other is part of a Bachelor of Science program, you must designate one as
the official degree of record. A second major eliminates the cognate requirement. You may request a second major by completing the following instructions [PDF]. Please contact the Women’s and Gender Studies Undergraduate Program Director, Dr.
Dawn Campbell (dawnc@mailbox.sc.edu), if you need help completing these instructions or have any questions about declaring
a double major with Women’s and Gender Studies.
