West Virginia Universitys Undergraduate Academic Services Center (UASC) is providing students an opportunity to learn more about the variety of degree programs offered by the University, during Major Mania Week March 12-16 in the Mountainlair Commons. Each day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. students can visit with faculty from many of the Universitys colleges and departments, ask questions and receive more information about undergraduate degrees and minors.

The event provides a venue for students that have not decided on a major, or who are interested in changing majors toshopmultiple programs and explore new options.

A common complaint from students is that they dont have time to travel around all the campuses to learn more about the different programs,said Maria Watson-Gaddis, UASC senior program coordinator.Were trying to make it more convenient by putting all these departments together in a location that is accessible for all students.

Industry estimates indicate a vast majority of college-bound students may be undecided about their major, direction of study or future career path. To help students determine their objectives, advisors at the UASC recommend identifying personal interests and career interests and then learn about academic programs that align with those interests. In its second semester, Major Mania Week was developed by the UASC to provide students with just such an opportunity.
