The Individualized Major (IMJR) Program was established in 1974 to serve undergraduate students who are interested in a major that is not offered at the University of Connecticut. Since then, more than 2000 students have graduated with a self-designed major. Students have chosen a wide range of topics for their majors, many unique, others more popular. International studies, health studies, and law, rights, and justice themes are among the most popular. But there are many other themes, including individualized majors focused on cognitive neuroscience, human sexuality, genetic counseling, criminal studies, religion, and film studies.
The Individualized Major Program is available to undergraduates based in the University of Connecticut’s College of Liberal Arts & Sciences and Agriculture & Natural Resources.
The Individualized & Interdisciplinary Studies Program (IISP)'s mission is to enhance undergraduate students' academic experience with interdisciplinary and unique learning opportunities. Toward this end, the Program works to support the academic endeavors of faculty based in the University's Schools and Colleges. The principal means by which the IISP assists students to pursue interdisciplinary and unique study is the Individualized Major Program.
