Cross-disciplinary study at the graduate and professional level isn't
unusual at universities like the University of Pennsylvania. Why are
we different? Well, we encourage cross-disciplinary study at the
undergraduate level, too. There are wonderful connections here
between academic areas. Students can select a major in one school -- the College at Penn, the School of Engineering and
Applied Science, the School of Nursing
and the Wharton
School -- and take elective courses, a minor or sometimes a second
degree in another school. Options for individually-designed majors that
draw on course work from throughout the University are available. This web
site highlights some of the collaboration between schools that makes Penn
unique.
The fact is, no other institution in America -- not one -- can offer an
undergraduate student more opportunities for cross-disciplinary study in joint and dual degree programs in which you
can receive bachelor's degrees in two disciplines, sub-matriculation programs in which you receive
both a bachelor's and a graduate or professional, degree or cross-disciplinary programs that combine study
in a number of academic areas.
