Directors of Undergraduate Programs
Each major in the College is overseen by a Director of the Undergraduate Program. If you have questions about courses offered by the department, major or minor requirements, opportunities for majors, etc., the person below is a great contact!
Helpful tip: The individuals listed here are all faculty, so it’s a good practice to address them as “Professor” when reaching out by email.
