Majors
The University of Maryland has over 100 majors to choose from. Originally deemed a land grant institution, Maryland has a long standing tradition of teaching agriculture and the sciences. But we don't stop there! Feast your eyes on the diverse range of academics below and pick your passion. If you don't find it, create it! At Maryland, advisors will work with you to form the curriculum you crave. You won't be the first: our famous alumnus Jim Henson decided to make his own major of "Puppetry" and the Muppets were born.
