The Welcome Sessions provide an excellent opportunity for first-year students to get to know the school deans and faculty in the schools of interest. Students are encouraged to attend any of the welcome sessions listed below. If students are considering a dual major, on the fence between one or more majors, or still exploring their options, they are encouraged to contact the Dean or the representative for that school (listed below) for more information and to schedule an exploratory conversation with a faculty member.
