Major Palooza

NOTE: The Department of Exploratory Studies and Career Services are in the process of re-engineering Major-Palooza. Therefore, we will not be having it this year (originally scheduled for February 28). Look for a reinvented version at some point in the future. Thank you for your continued support and interest!!

Open to all students who want to learn more about majors and possible career paths.  Talk with departmental faculty members, academic and career advisers, and student leaders.

Learn more about:

Majors

Occupations

Faculty - Staff: We are looking for participation from all undergraduate and some graduate departments. Major-Palooza is a great recruiting opportunity for departments to promote their majors and programs to a targeted group in a relatively short time frame.  

Major-Palooza, co-sponsored by Career Services and Gateway Programs/QUEST, typically has around 400-500 students and 50 departments representing over 75 majors attend this event each year. All undecided students from the Gateway/QUEST program are required to attend.   

Based on completed  student evaluations, over 50% of students tell us that after Major-Palooza, they are ready to declare a major! Furthermore, over 90% of students indicate that advisers, faculty, and/or student reps are the most helpful in helping them make a decision!
