Pathways Event

Explore majors. Find your passion. Map your path.

Pathways to Academic Engagement, held annually in January, is a two-week series of workshops, panels, speakers, mixers, and other events designed to connect you with your major and campus co-curricular opportunities. You’ll meet alumni, advisors, professors, career staff, industry professionals, and campus programs as you explore majors, discover your interests, and map your academic path.
