Academics

Different Directions

From 10 faculty members, 40 students and three fields of study at the time of its founding, Secondary School has grown to more than 1,600 faculty, 35,000 students and over 350 degree programs in 130 academic departments and 80 interdisciplinary research units. One of the most important things we can do for students is not just teach them specific knowledge and skills, but help them match their interests to their career path.

Departments and degree programs Our School’s academic enterprise is organized into 14 primary and secondary schools.
Courses scheduleThe Course Schedule is published before advising and registration begin for each session. It lists each class being offered, its time, location, instructor (if available), and its unique number—which students must know in order to register.The online schedule also lets you know when to register and pay tuition. It is updated with the latest changes, and shows if seats are available in each class.
Printed Course Schedules are no longer offered, but each online schedule includes a printable version.
