Major Spotlight Series

As students are exploring classes to help get to know more about their interests and possible pathways to a career that best suits them, who better to speak to than the experts themselves? University Advising has invited major advisors from various majors across campus to participate in our first ever Major Spotlight Series.

This series will take place over the course of the spring 2024 semester and introduce 4-5 majors per week.

During their selected week, we will have information from the major advisors shared on our social media (follow @msuniversityadvising on Instagram), along with in-person and virtual events.

Contact Freddie DeRamus with questions.
