Undecided about a major? You're not alone. In fact, "undecided" is our most popular major. We've found over time, however, that few students are truly undecided. Most have many ideas and interests they wish to pursue in college. That's why we prefer to say "multi-interested." With almost 80 majors at Marquette, we'll help you to choose a major or minor combination that matches your interests and skills. We think you'll find that a liberal arts education will not only prepare you for meaningful work, but for a purposeful life as well.
Explore the core.
The University Core of Common Studies is the foundation of every Marquette student's educational experience and consists of nine knowledge areas, including Rhetoric, Diverse Cultures, and Literature and Performing Arts. Many core courses are taught by faculty in the Helen Way Klingler College of Arts and Sciences, the college with courses at the heart of every Marquette major. It's a great place for undecided majors to start.

With more than 30 majors and 50 student organizations alone, it's a great place to be undecided or multi-interested. Get to know us and get involved with classmates, advisers and faulty who care in the Jesuit tradition of cura personalis, which calls for treating people with respect for their unique qualities, gifts and challenges as individuals. With that kind of support, it's no wonder that roughly half our students graduate with more than one major.
