All first-year students take a first-year seminar, in either the fall or spring semester, as the gateway course to the Common Curriculum. When students enroll at Loyola, they are asked to select several seminars they would like to take and send their preferences to us in priority order. We then pre-register students for a seminar, making every effort to place them in their top choice.
Loyola's interdisciplinary studies programs give students the chance to examine topics from multiple perspectives, explore issues that emerge at the intersection of academic disciplines, and think creatively about themes and problems across departmental boundaries. These programs draw on the broad intellectual resources of the university and the specialized expertise of teacher-scholars in a variety of departments. Students interested in interdisciplinary study may choose among three majors and thirteen minors.
The Loyola University Honors Program offers the opportunity for academically superior, highly motivated students to take challenging honors courses, to participate in special cultural and intellectual enrichment activities, and to engage in a Living-Learning Community for honors students. The University Honors Program is open to qualified students of all undergraduate colleges and majors.
