Program Offerings
With so many opportunities, it can seem overwhelming to decide on which major to pursue. That’s why in the first year at South Dakota Mines, students can have an undeclared major.
What is Undecided Major?
Students with an undeclared major will take an introduction course to all programs at South Dakota Mines. Each week, one academic program is featured. Faculty provide information on their program curriculum and present examples of how a graduate might use that degree.
What does a undecided major do?
Some of South Dakota Mines’ best advisers have been selected to work with undeclared students to help them narrow their options for a degree. Once a student selects a degree, these specialized advisers will connect the student with an adviser from that major who can continue to work with the student throughout their remaining time at Mines.
