Watch: Student Experiences with GUST
Coming to UNE without a declared major was by far one of my best decisions. My faculty mentor really supports his students and helps put potential majors into perspective — through school and as a career." Colin Gleason – Class of 2023
阵风过程
探索
作为一名GUST学生, you will enroll in a common first-year seminar to formally explore majors with the guidance of a faculty mentor. You’ll learn about various programs by interviewing professors, meeting with students within majors, 阅读文学作品, 还有旁听课堂.
在此期间, you will also consult with your professional advisor and UNE’s career services team. Together they will help you understand the career pathways connected with those various majors.
过渡
Once you have chosen your major, UNE will support you in transitioning to your new course of study. You will meet the department chair for your major, and you’ll be assigned a new faculty mentor from that program. By reviewing curriculum maps with your mentor and advisor, you will create your graduation plan — a semester-by-semester plan to earn your degree.
