About the Program

This pre-major is intended to serve as an optional entry point/portal for students interested in life sciences and enrolling in the Purdue College of Agriculture with an interest in plants but who are uncertain about the differences between all the majors and career options. As a Plant Studies - Exploratory major, students will make progress toward their Bachelor of Science degree and engage the numerous experiential learning opportunities (e.g. learning communities, clubs, leadership opportunities, Study Abroad, etc.) offered in the College. Students will have up to 4-semesters or 60 total credits to explore the various majors before selecting one that best meets their educational and career interests. It is anticipated that most students will likely select a major by the end of their first two semesters.
