Undecided in Arts and Sciences
BGSU offers options for students who wish to explore several Bachelor of Arts programs before choosing a major. Undecided students can take time to explore the many liberal arts classes across BGSU’s majors and minors.
Your Life Design coach and academic advisor can help you navigate your college journey based on your interests, talents and prior experiences.
Some majors need to start with prerequisites relatively early to complete within four years of college. BGSU academic advisors can help you cover your prerequisites if you have specialized degrees in mind, but haven’t decided on an exact major.

Curriculum
The BGSU College of Arts and Sciences features academic disciplines traditionally identified as being within the liberal arts: science and math, social sciences, arts and humanities.
You can enroll as an undecided major in the College of Arts and Science with a Bachelor of Arts and receive academic advising about any area within the college. Academic advisors help you identify your interests and choose a major that complements those interests.
Career exploration is encouraged. Many opportunities exist for internships, cooperative education assignments, study abroad, service-learning and campus employment.
Career
Many of today’s careers don’t require a specific kind of degree, and changing careers is more and more common. Following your interests, identifying your values, and unleashing your curiosity are more likely to lead to a major you care about and a career that can sustain your passion.
Bachelor of Arts programs tend to focus on broader knowledge and skills in critical thinking, creativity, writing and communication. The world needs both generalists and specialists, and there are promising careers for both.
Complementing your major with a minor can open up additional career possibilities. Literature and arts management may lead to a career in publishing or nonprofit organizations. A Bachelor of Arts in a world language, with a minor in economics, could lead to a career in business development abroad.
BGSU Life Design coaches are here to help undecided students examine their skills, interests, values and personal characteristics. Students can investigate majors, campus organizations, occupations and career paths with a better understanding of themselves.
Academic advisors can help identify academic courses, majors and experiential learning opportunities that enhance future employment options. This is a proven pathway to making informed career and life decisions and results in realistic goals and an action plan.
